Listen "Applied Geopolitics Central Asia’s Geopolitical Challenges"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Applied Geopolitics from RANE, host Rodger Baker speaks to Dr. Kamran Bokhari, Director of Analytical Development at the New Lines Institute, who has just returned from a trip to Central Asia. They discuss how Central Asia is re-emerging as a key region for trans-Eurasian trade. But the landlocked Central Asian “Stans” sit in a complicated neighborhood, with a new sort of Great Game being played quietly among Russia, China, and more recently Turkey, with political and security uncertainty in nearby Afghanistan, and with a growing desire for additional outside investment to build on recent economic and transportation gains.
