“…More recently, the discussion on patrons has mostly focused on the role of Russia in statehood conflicts of the post-Soviet space (Bakke et al 2018; Ganohariti 2020; Gerrits and Bader 2017), but other examples include Turkey, which plays an important role in the unrecognized state of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC, e.g. Dayioğlu et al 2019), Algeria or Armenia for the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR), and Nagorno Karabakh, respectively, while Kolstø (2006) argues for a similar understanding of the US role vis a vis Taiwan.

Conflicts of de facto states; Conflicts of unrecognized states; Secessionist conflicts; Separatist conflicts; Sovereignty conflicts; Territorial conflicts Definition/Description Statehood conflicts are those emanating from incompatible claims to and substantial efforts at statehood over the same territory. The main parts to the conflict are the different claimants to statehood, often but not always a recognized state and a group that is seeking secession from it. A variety of other regional or global actors, like states or international organizations, are also involved to a greater or lesser degree. While often defined by intractability, typical solutions of such conflicts include forceful or peaceful (re)integration to the state from which secession is attempted or, more rarely, independent statehood.
