Abstract

The author analyzes the dynamics of Russian-Uzbek cooperation in military and political sphere in the last 20 years. The article emphasizes Tashkent’s striving for the regional leadership, which in context of close cooperation between Moscow and Astana makes bilateral relationship with Uzbekistan more complicated. Having undertaken a study, the author argues that every new step of rapprochement between Tashkent and Washington inevitably worsens Russian-Uzbek relations. The process may also be evaluated by the degree of Uzbekistan’s involvement in CSTO activities.
