Rumble In The Caucasus

Episode Summary

Armenia and Azerbaijan are at it again over the enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh, and it may put the whole Caucasus region at risk.

Episode Notes

This week on The Elucidators: Decoding Global News, we step into the Caucasus, a mountainous Eurasian region where an ongoing rivalry between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the contested region of Nagorno-Karabakh has erupted into open fighting. Could neighboring Great Powers Turkey and Russia be drawn into a larger war that neither really wants to fight? Boy... We sure hope not!
