This paper argues that the situation in Central Asia is largely determined by Uzbekistan’s domestic situation. It is from the position of regional leader that Tashkent is trying to conduct relations with its neighbors and with outside powers. This explains external interest in the country’s internal political situation and in the anticipated changes within its ruling elite. According to the author, one of the central questions - who will lead the country after President Islam Karimov - remains hard to answer.
