The Outlook for the South Caucasus after August 2008
Monday 20 October 2008 14:00 to 15:30
Location
Chatham House
Participants
Speaker: Sabine Freizer, Europe Programme Director at International Crisis Group
Discussant: Rachel Clogg, Caucasus Programme Director at Conciliation Resources
Type: Fee-paying or special invitation events
The recent conflict in Georgia will have complex and paradoxical consequences for security in the Caucasus region. For some actors, though by no means all, Russia's show of force may discourage attempts to contest its policy in the region. The subsequent recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, however, could embolden separatist movements within the Russian Federation itself, and further south in Nagorno-Karabakh. Meanwhile the internal security of Georgia is now also uncertain.
This event is by invitation only.
