January 6, 2025
Central Asia is entering 2025 amidst growing geopolitical uncertainty. Tensions between the West, Russia and China have the potential to disrupt global supply chains, financial markets, security dynamics and political stability in the region.

New geopolitical shocks could cause resource supply difficulties, drive up inflation, and hinder economic growth. In addition, domestic political instability will remain a key risk to monitor throughout the region in 2025.
