Almost thirty years after the fall of the USSR, Central Asia remains one of the most forgotten regions on the planet. However, its relevance is growing due to its energetic and strategic importance since September 11, 2001 and the US attack against the Taliban in Afghanistan a month later. Since then, Americans, Russians and Chinese have wanted to influence the region, which is of great geopolitical importance due to its size, geographical position, natural resources and the role played by various countries within it. As a result, Central Asia has become an area of indisputable importance at both regional and international levels, which is why its study is essential today. Thus, this book analyzes how world powers are trying to define their relationships with the five countries within Central Asia and in so doing, it offers a contemporary geopolitical vision of a region that is important for its geography and resources.
