“…Consequently, the interconnection of uncertainty, speed- and expected duration of specified switching regimes of lead to a combination of fewer risks and higher resilience of the US ES, in response to the NAST. Specifically, the NAST causes resource availability, and a negative correlation among energy prices that facilitates the replacement of coal, oil, and green energy sources (e.g., nuclear power and renewable energy resources) by natural gas in the energy mix that supports the physical availability, price affordability and accessibility dimensions of the US ES, and therefore, increases the US (Kosai and Unesaki 2020a , b ; García Mazo et al 2020 ; Hasanov et al 2020 ; Liu et al 2020a , b ; Sun et al 2020 ; Acemoglu et al 2019 ; Francés et al 2013 ).…”

Sustainable energy systems are sensitive to the countries’ energy portfolio decisions, shaping geopolitics and contributing to the global energy security (ES). Accordingly, this paper applies the “Markov regime-switching” method to explore the impact of “the North American shale technology” (NAST) on behavioral regimes of the US energy security measurements (ESM), e.g., diversity of primary energy demand ($${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{I}}$$ ESI I ), net energy import dependence ($${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{II}}$$ ESI II ), non-fossil fuel resource portfolio ($${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{III}}$$ ESI III ), and crude oil import dependency ($${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{IV}}$$ ESI IV ). The findings confirm time-varying and asymmetric behavior of the US ESM before and after the NAST. Specifically, the overall interaction of substitution effect and scale effect of NAST strengthens the US energy systems through $${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{I}}$$ ESI I , $${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{III}}$$ ESI III , and $${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{IV}}$$ ESI IV , while $${\mathrm{ESI}}_{\mathrm{II}}$$ ESI II leads to higher risks of the US energy supply security. Consequently, the shale reserves development, diversification of primary energy demand and import supply, and advanced energy transport and trading policies, are suggested to overcome the barriers in achieving (i) availability, (ii) accessibility, (iii) affordability, and (iv) acceptability aspects of ES and vulnerability reduction of the US energy systems in respect of risk and resilience.

“…In addition, the EIB has also proceeded with two loans to finance a gas pipeline in Azerbaidjan, thus backing fossil fuel based alternatives. Moreover, this meant questioniong its sustainability status quo and EU human rights status, as the Azerbaidjan government has been under accusations on severe human rights violations (Hasanov et al 2020). On the other hand the EIB took stance globally to provide assistance under the Covid-19 pandemic, from SME's support to actual vaccines.…”

Of all international organisations, Multilateral Development Banks (MDB) are not the most well-known nor the most scrutinised neither by the academy nor the public. However, they play a major role as financial institutions for the purpose of development. The article, drawing on the broader field of Humanitarian Aid and Aid for Development discusses the role of those agencies, particularly with reference to the connections between the humanitarian and the development dimensions, and within this later case, assessing their efforts in order to tackle poverty and to abide by sustainability concerns. The conclusion highlights some of the main findings, mainly with reference to two cases, the European Development Bank (EIB) and the New Development Bank (NDB).

“…For Azerbaijan opening, the region means consolidating its position and bargaining power as a transit country and connectivity hub. When it comes to the EU, the Central Asia region again is valuable for its massive gas resources and the region is part of the EU's corridorbuilding endeavors to reach Asia through Eurasian land routes (Hasanov, et al, 2020).…”

The European Union (EU) and Azerbaijan high-level transport dialogue is the continuation of the long period of cooperation between the EU and Azerbaijan in the area of transport since the early 1990s. The geopolitical and geo-economic maps of Eurasia, the South Caucasus, and the regions around have significantly changed since then thanks to rise of China, India, and other regional actors. These actors in their turn began to initiate competitive logistical and transportation projects to define terms and conditions of the making of Eurasian transport and trade routes. The ultimate goal is to have a share in controlling global flows passing through the strategic spots of Eurasian landmass. The EU’s recent transport dialogue with Azerbaijan reflects and is reaction to those changes that happened in the wider Europe, in Eurasia, and in the globe. This paper tries to place the EU and Azerbaijan transport dialogue to a broader picture to find out what changes conditioned and necessitated the upgraded dialogue between the EU and Azerbaijan. To do so, it traces the EU and Azerbaijan’s transport policies and cooperation since the early 1990s.
