There is a strong linkage between energy and security. It can be a factor both for cooperation
and conflicts, namely it can push forward for cooperation between two states, while at the same
time can create tension between them. This tendency can be applied to Caspian Sea, which
contains one of the largest oil and gas areas of the world. The energy diplomacy has been key

transportation of energy resources to world markets has been a central element of their foreign
policies, and has enabled them to strengthen their sovereignty.
