Question

What are the threats to national security?

Answer 1

There are disputes between nations over boundaries or sometimes conflicts emerge between them over water sharing.

Some other reasons for conflict could be: not following the terms of international treaties, constantly competing against each other and influx of refugees from neighbouring countries.

Whenever such a conflict of interests arises between nations, it is sought to be resolved by compromises and discussions. But when such efforts are not enough to resolve the conflict, a nation may even think of war.

When a nation attacks another and challenges the sovereignty of the latter, it endangers the security of the nation.
