Post-Soviet conflicts are those conflicts which engulfed the countries of the former Soviet Union, in the time period beginning shortly before its official breakup in December 1991 and continuing until today. Some of these conflicts ended in a stalemate or without a peace treaty, and are referred to as frozen conflicts.

Famous quotes containing the words frozen and/or conflict:
“What’s the greatest enemy of Christianity to-day? Frozen meat. In the past only members of the upper classes were thoroughly sceptical, despairing, negative. Why? Among other reasons, because they were the only people who could afford to eat too much meat. Now there’s cheap Canterbury lamb and Argentine chilled beef. Even the poor can afford to poison themselves into complete scepticism and despair.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“We are not naïve enough to ask for pure men; we ask merely for men whose impurity does not conflict with the obligations of their job.”
—Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
