Abstract

The collapse of the Soviet system and the emergence of new sovereign states in the early 1990s radically changed the geopolitical configuration of Eurasia. The need to adapt to the changed international political situation had a major impact on the emergence of Central Asia as a new geopolitical region of the world. From the very beginning, not only regional factors but also global ones played a major role in this process.
