520 _aIn 1991, the independence of the Central Asian republics (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, andTurkmenistan) provoked a renewed interest of Turkey in the region. Ankara then focused on promoting its soft power and developing its trade with these countries, before adding a new area of cooperation (hard power) as of the victory of Azerbaijan, Turkey’s military ally, against Armenia in the second Nagorno-Karabakh war in 2020. Russia’s war in Ukraine on February 24th, 2022 has had a multiplier effect on Turkish-Central Asian partnerships, but has not removed all obstacles to the realisation of Turkish leadership in Central Asia. The question arises as to whether Turkey is already a stabilising power in Central Asia on a par with, or even replacing, Russia, whose reputation has been tarnished by its invasion of the Ukrainian territory.
