Clash of political interests of Russia and the USA in Central Asian republics

Abstract

Amid further political and economic sanctions imposed by the USA and the EU on the Russian Federation, Russia is experiencing a gradual pivot towards the East; among other states Russia is intensifying its ties with Central Asia and China. From this perspective, deepening confl ict between Russia and the USA might be explained as a clash of their political interests. The political environment of the modern system of international relations refl ects the rise of political disagreements between Russia and the USA in the Central Asian republics. To pursue its political ends in Central Asia Russia has to promote relations and cooperation within the Collective Security Treaty Organization, the Eurasian Economic Union and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
