Sagaidak, E.A. The growing deficit
of water resources as a challenge
to the security
of the Southern Asian states
Abstract:
Currently the correlation with the presence of natural resources, serving as a powerful foreign policy instrument
of a state, and the international relations, serving as a forceful factor for distribution of resources among various states,
becomes quite topical. Such a “formula” is directly related to the water supply issue in all of the regions of the world.
It is more and more often, that one has to mention forced migration of the people due to lack of fresh water, as well as
conflicts among the states related to water use and control over vital waterways. The fresh water becomes a considerable
factor in a global policy, and it is one of the most important security elements, since it is based upon three key
elements: energy resources, foodstuffs and water. Till recently the states paid attention to the lack of fresh water to the
needs of people, agriculture, and industry, now the states become more and more interested in gaining access to vital
water ways of bordering states, which may in the futures guarantee security of the state allow to control neighboring
states and regions.
Keywords:
international relations, foreign policy, civilization, conflict, water resources, the Southern Asia, interests, values, security, state.
