This report analyzes available data trends using the Country Indicators for Foreign Policy methodology. Conflict indicators are utilized to assess the current situation and to predict the conflict\u2019s future trajectory.

As for the worst-case scenario, the possibility remains that the situation degrades back into violent conflict that draws in allied powers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/cifp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/132\/2021-Nagorno-Karabakh.-Conflict-Diagnostic.pdf\">2021 Nagorno Karabakh Conflict Diagnostic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the increased tensions and arms exports that preceded the September 2020 conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, a November 9 ceasefire agreement was reached to limit the violent interaction between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
