Central Asia's Role on the Global Stage Continues to Expand
Recent developments signal a new chapter for Central Asia as it continues to rise in prominence on the international stage.
The region has strategically positioned itself as a vital hub for trade routes and natural resources, attracting attention from global players like the EU, US, China, and Japan.
 
Key takeaways:
 
✅ Central Asian states are leveraging the geopolitical shift, engaging more actively with external partners, including Japan, which recently intensified its involvement through the C5+Japan initiative.
