Mirziyoyev’s Early Outreach to Washington Marked a Clear Break With the Past
A chance meeting in 2016 in Bishkek set the tone for a new Uzbek leadership that welcomed U.S. assistance, pledged governance reforms and launched tools for direct citizen engagement. When Uzbekistan’s newly installed president met a senior U.S. official on a hot summer day, he emphasized a pragmatic approach to security and education while signaling a break from his predecessor. He noted that, two years earlier, Tashkent had taken delivery of 328 surplus MRAP armored vehicle

Tajik President Returns From Beijing With Big Solar Deals and New Lines of Credit
During a three-day visit to Beijing, Tajikistan’s leader secured a string of investment agreements and a large financing package, even as questions mount about the bidders chosen to build the country’s burgeoning solar sector. Emomali Rahmon signed roughly 50 separate arrangements that officials say could bring in about $8 billion, and won an $800 million loan from the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank — a sum roughly twice the bank’s prior total support for Dush


Central Asian Leaders’ Surprise Visit to Moscow Raises Questions About Motives
Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and Uzbekistan’s Shavkat Mirziyoyev turned up in Moscow on May 9 to stand with President Vladimir Putin at a sharply reduced Victory Day ceremony, a move that has prompted fresh speculation about why two normally cautious regional leaders altered plans at the last minute. The parade on Moscow’s central square was markedly shorter and less ostentatious than in past years amid security concerns about possible drone attacks, and many intern


Washington’s Bureaucracy Keeps Misplacing Central Asia
Washington’s agencies and lawmakers keep sending Central Asia to different policy boxes, hampering a united response to Beijing’s westward push. Congress has shuffled oversight of the five republics across committees that focus alternately on Europe, the Asia‑Pacific, the Middle East and South Asia, a rotation that has continued through four recent congressional sessions.
