Central Asia is a region that is a link between Asia and Europe, where a unique experience of economic development has been accumulated. The five countries - Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan - are home to 80 million people, with a combined gross domestic product of 450 billion dollars. Significant reserves of uranium, oil and gas are concentrated here. The Chinese megaproject "One Belt, One Road" and the international transport corridor "North-South" are being implemented here. Here they are striving to modernize and develop innovative potential. For this reason, even in the conditions of global geopolitical turbulence, the countries of the region have been able to form a space of trust and respect, removed barriers to regional cooperation, and created a foundation for the development of multifaceted and multilateral cooperation with the states of the world. In this regard, the Republic of Belarus is actively developing trade and economic, industrial and cooperative, scientific and technical, cultural and humanitarian ties with the five Central Asian States. What tasks in this regard are already being solved in practice and defined for the future? This is the subject of the proposed study.
