squirmish
An international conflict that is so politically delicate that any involvement is officially 'denied nor confirmed'.
The word is invented by governor Sarah Palin in May 2011 when she mispronounced "skirmish" when referring to the involvement of the US in the 'Arab Spring'. The word happened to perfectly describe the awkwardness of the situation.
