The Ferghana Valley, a region spanning parts of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan, is home to 20 percent of Central Asia's entire population and has become a potential flashpoint for conflict within the former Soviet Union. This report, produced by the Council on Foreign Relations' Center for Preventive Action (CPA), assesses the potential for conflict in Central Asia through the prism of this volatile area.
Central Asia, as a whole, is a region that is potentially one of the most explosive and least understood areas of the former Soviet Union. It is also growing rapidly in importance to U.S. national security, commercial, and foreign policy interests. This vast region, larger than Eastern and Western Europe combined, is marked by the persistence of relatively corrupt and authoritarian governments and a rapidly growing population of over 50 million people.
The region is significant due to its vast oil, gas, gold, and other resources, as well as its role as a source and transit route for narcotics and possible nuclear and other materials. Additionally, the region is affected by the fierce conflicts in Tajikistan and Afghanistan, further adding to the potential for instability.
The Ferghana Valley, in particular, has recently experienced increasing religious and ethnic tensions, with the danger being that instability in the valley could spread more widely throughout Central Asia. This report, sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations and The Century Foundation, aims to assess the potential for conflict in this volatile region.
The report highlights the importance of understanding the complexities and dynamics within Central Asia, as it is a region that is not only strategically significant but also potentially explosive. The analysis of the Ferghana Valley provides a lens through which to better understand the broader challenges and opportunities in this critical region of the former Soviet Union.
The report's findings and recommendations are intended to inform and guide policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders in addressing the pressing issues and potential conflicts that could arise in Central Asia, with a focus on the Ferghana Valley as a key area of concern.
