PERSPECTIVES OF CHINA’S ECONOMIC BELT OF SILK ROAD IN CENTRAL ASIA

Abstract

Perspectives of China’s ‘One Belt – One Road’ Initiative in Central Asia will depend on various factors. Central Asia as a region of Russian “sphere of influence” may become a testing zone for ‘division of powers’ between two powers when China will limit itself with only economic type of integration, while Russia preserves own dominance; or Beijing will strengthen military-political influence in the region. In the case of successful implementation the Initiative can crate solid base for the growth of Chinese political and military presence in the region.
