description <strong>The international community has begun to recognize the importance of environmental problems as a matter of global concern, especially as environmental differences have increased, which have increased internationalization and threaten international peace and security. International efforts have been made to find legal means to prevent and avoid environmental conflicts that may develop into a survey conflict.</strong> <br /><strong>And environmental disputes, are all disputes between persons of international law in a legal matter relating to an attack affecting an element of the environment and its natural resources.</strong> <br /><strong>In a remarkable development of international attention to environmental resources and its relationship to the maintenance of international peace and security, it began to find its way into the texts of international documents. The Security Council, in accordance with its mandate to maintain international peace and security, played the most important role in addressing many environmental disputes.</strong> <br /><strong>The scarcity of fresh water resources is a major problem, which is often the cause of international environmental disputes, especially in relation to international rivers. Iraq suffers from the problem of declining freshwater levels due to water reservations by neighboring countries and the construction of dams. The construction of the (Alesso) dam on the Tigris is a serious environmental threat to Iraq , and we hope that peaceful solutions will be found to address it and that there will be an international agreement under the supervision of the united nations to regulate the amount that covers Iraq’s need for fresh water.</strong>
