INTERNATIONAL DISPUTE RELATED TO WATER RESOURCES

?Have you ever thought that water could also be the cause of war?

?Increasing population, frequent droughts, and floods with accumulative severe destruction… make the need to find and use water resources more and more intense so that it might become the cause of a new war – the war for water.

?According to forecasts, the risk of war arising from water (after 2022), the use of water as a weapon of war or a tool of terrorism will be 40% higher (compared to 2018), especially in South Vietnam, Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa – places where water is scarce. 

?The need to establish an international system to assess global water resources is becoming increasingly urgent. This highly technical activity should be supported by some kind of international tribunal for water (the water dispute is too technical to be resolved by the International Court of Justice).
