Water has always been a strategic issue in conflicts

by Franck Galland, CEO of the engineering consultancy Environmental Emergency & Security Services - (ES)²

Franck Galland, CEO of  the engineering consultancy Environmental Emergency & Security Services - (ES)² discusses water as a strategic issue in a geopolitical context currently marked by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Essential to human life, water also plays a major role in conflicts. On the one hand because armies must ensure their supply for the troops, on the other hand because the temptation is great, since Antiquity, to conduct a water war.
