What is a border dispute escalation?

A border dispute escalation refers to the process by which a disagreement or conflict over international borders between two or more countries intensifies or becomes more severe over time. This escalation can occur due to various factors such as territorial claims, resource disputes, historical grievances, political tensions, or failure to reach a mutually acceptable resolution. As the dispute escalates, it may involve increased military presence, diplomatic tensions, economic sanctions, or even armed conflicts.
