ТРЕНДЫ И РИСКИ ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОГО СОТРУДНИЧЕСТВА РОССИИ И УЗБЕКИСТАНА В УСЛОВИЯХ ГЕОПОЛИТИЧЕСКОЙ НАПРЯЖЕННОСТИ

Abstract

Based on the analysis of Russia's foreign economic relations with Uzbekistan, the study reveals an asymmetry in economic cooperation between the two states, manifested in the great dependence of the Central Asian republic on Russia, especially in overcoming poverty problems and reducing pressure on the domestic labor market. With this in mind, the author assessed the impact of increasing geopolitical tensions on the dynamics of bilateral cooperation between Russia and Uzbekistan, as well as the possible consequences of sanctions pressure on the former for the economy of the latter.
