Acting North in Eurasia: India’s Connect Central Asia Policy Makes Way for Act Central Asia
India has close geo-political and geo-cultural relationship with the countries in Central Asia. Despite similar security concerns emanating from Afghanistan and mutual close cultural ties due to geographical proximity, India and the Central Asian countries were unable to impart a geo-economic logic to their relations due to lack of direct connectivity.

Afghanistan and the Crisis in Europe: Kabul’s Prospects for Peace
By all accounts, the global security setting has been shifted from South Asia to Europe, and even the most devastating crises in the Middle East and Asia have been deprioritised in the Western list of major conflicts. Despite changes in the strategic objectives of the US and NATO, the current situation in Afghanistan is once again aggravating: ISIS is increasing the frequency of its attacks on both Sunni and Shia Muslims.

On the Current Geopolitical Situation in Eurasia: A View from Tajikistan
In 2022, the modern system of international relations was optimised and began to function in the format of a tripolar world. The start of Russia's special operation in one of the countries of Eastern Europe completed the stage of the formation of a tripolar world with three gravitational centres of world politics - Russia, China and the United States.

Central Asia and Crisis in Europe
In terms of Russian foreign relations, the countries of Central Asia remain the most stable in the former USSR. There is no state or association for which the fight against Russian interests would be a central foreign policy strategy. Potential challenges and threats to stability are primarily related to internal factors, writes Valdai Club Programme Director Timofei Bordachev.
