| Title | Military Strategy of Russia: Why Is Russia Reasserting Its Military Presence in Central Asia? |
| Summary | This capstone project seeks to study Russia’s military presence in Central Asia, focusing on examining recent military strategy, updated policies, and reforms of Russia’s foreign policy toward the military field in Central Asia. The research is basic and primarily approached through analyzing available secondary data using a mixed qualitative-quantitative approach. To answer the research question, the study examines the antagonistic factors that have influenced the revitalization of Russia's military aims in the region within the defense departments of Russia. To analytically study conceptual frameworks, the research deeply examines the historical background of Russia’s military vision toward Central Asia since the collapse of the Soviet Union in the military sector and how it has changed over the years, as well as the exact factors that influenced recent decisions. In this project, I analyze particular documents, policies, and statistics in the Russian language and integrate them into the primary data. |
