abstract = {This article analyzes the geopolitical significance of the Nova Kakhovka Dam during the period of 2022‑ 2023, with a focus on its role as a potential existential threat within the critical discourse of water security. The analysis is framed within the context of hydropolitics and critical hydrographic geopolitics, situated within the broader theoretical framework of critical security studies. Through in‑ depth research on the discourse and language of security related to this issue, the article assesses the strategic implications of the dam for regional security and international relations. Special emphasis is placed on the period following the Russian aggression in February 2022, leading up to the dam’s destruction by Russian forces in June 2023. Consequently, this article serves as a valuable resource for analysts and policymakers involved in the formulation of water security strategies and agendas.},
