Balkanalysis.com Presents: Spotlight on the Caucasus Week

Every day this week, Balkanalysis.com will publish a new article on the fascinating and complex region of the Caucasus. Topics will range from security to politics and economics, and cover the major countries of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia, as well as cross-border issues in the North Caucasus and first-hand testimony of the situation on the ground.

The week kicks off tomorrow with an analysis of the political dynamic in the little-understood North Caucasus Russian republics of Adygeya and Ingushetia, by Kazakhstan native and Oxford scholar Alisa Voznaya.

On Wednesday, we present an exclusive interview with the venerable Canadian journalist and publisher, Scott Taylor, who offers his insights on Azerbaijan’s new militaristic confidence following a recent trip to Baku.

Thursday the series continues with a detailed overview of the refugee situation in Georgia, presented by Ana Toklikishvili, Public Information Officer at the United Nations Association of Georgia.

Friday, we present a short analysis on the Azeri oil industry- and what it might mean for the future of energy transit.
We hope that readers enjoy this special presentation, which features several different perspectives on one of the key regions in today’s world.
