Abstract
The paper addresses the transformation of the world order and the geopolitical and strategic processes taking place within its framework, especially the developments in the Greater Middle East and the Indo-Pacific region, their main actors and political ambitions. In 2020, the Artsakh war and subsequent developments created a new geo-strategic and geo-economic situation for Armenia. In light of this and subsequent events, we see that the system of international relations has entered a highly complex and even chaotic period, which includes a vast region from the Atlantic coast of Europe to the Pacific coast of the Far East. In this context, there are discussed the two geostrategic concepts emerging in the international discourse regarding the Greater Middle East and the Indo-Pacific macro-regions. The paper analyzes the processes, unfolding in those regions, including the US policies and strategies, as well as their implications, the factors of China and India as the main actors, formed and emerging alliances, as well as cooperation formats. The transformation of the global world order and the formation of the new geopolitical regions of the Greater Middle East, Central Asia and the Indo-Pacific portend great dramatic changes. The struggle of great powers or power centers (USA, China, India, Iran, Turkey, Europe, Russia) in the mentioned regions is becoming the core of modern world politics. Thus, it can be confirmed that the Greater Middle East and Indo-Pacific macro-regions are moving towards each other, due to which a completely new situation is emerging, which is significantly different from both the post-Cold War world order and the global order established after September 11, 2001.
