This is a short on-the-spot report on the Transcaucasus in March, 1998 when the writer visited Geogia and Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan and other coastal Republics of the Caspian Sea turned out to be one of the focal points in the international arena because of potential reserves of petroleum and gas in and around the Sea. Surrounding countries compete each other to have maximum profits out of them and international oil companies also rushed to the area However, the three Republics in the Transcaucasus have suffered from the refugee and territorial problems caused by ethnic conflicts such as Nagorno Karabakh issue and Abkhajian separatism, economic crises and turbulent regional and international power game including Russia and the United States. There is not a clear picture presented before us to solve with ease the regional ethnic conflicts and economic difficulties. It is hoped the expected that oil boom will take a long way to solve the issues in the turbulent transitional period.
