Full Description
The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict can be regarded as a final attempt to
avert the disintegration of the Soviet Union. During the CIAorchestrated
privatisation of the Soviet Union, as well as the agency's Operation
Cyclone in the context of the Soviet-Afghan War, the USSR experienced a
severe economic crisis that rendered Mikhail Gorbachev's Glasnost and
Perestroika reform programme essential.
The text provides a comprehensive analysis of the motivations behind a
KGB general's efforts to prevent the dissolution of the USSR through the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In addition, it sheds light on the role of
increased oil demand in prompting the United States to pursue the
break-up of the USSR, with the objective of securing access to Soviet
oil reserves. Finally, the role of Russia and Turkey as the United
States' main trading partners is examined.
