This strategic location has attracted the attention of numerous regional and global players, who have engaged in both soft and hard power contests. Azerbaijan's vast hydrocarbon energy reserves further enhance its significance in the South Caucasus. The region's complex geopolitics have profoundly shaped Azerbaijan's foreign policy strategy. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Azerbaijan emerged as a new state with fragile security, surrounded by regional powers such as Iran, Russia, and Turkey. This book delves into several critical foreign policy challenges faced by the Republic of Azerbaijan since gaining independence in 1991. These challenges include the ongoing conflict with Armenia and its related matters, the country's relationship with the West, and the complexities arising from its relationship with Russia and its ties to Muslim countries, including Iran and Saudi Arabia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 143 x 204 x 11 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9788024643915                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095385239802,"sku":"9788024643915","price":15.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3d96527db438883dcf125f7bb5c43b83.jpg?v=1632454743","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/azerbaijans-geopolitical-landscape-contemporary-issues-1991-2018","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
