The current issue of the Caucasus Strategic Perspectives (CSP) journal entitled “Reinforcing the bonds between South Caucasus and Central Asia” is dedicated to the different aspects of the cooperation between two regions from connectivity, environment and climate issues to energy policy. The CSP journal also featured off-topic, yet timely written articles covering the current and relevant developments in the South Caucasus region. The CSP’s new issue includes 7 articles and 1 commentary. The CSP’s current authors analyzed Azerbaijan’s increasing regional interaction with the countries of Central Asia, notably its role in multilateral organizations, such as the SCO, the CICA, and the OTS and emergence as a pivotal actor in the region, as well as the environmental and climate challenges in Central Asia and the South Caucasus regions and the roles of the regional organizations in addressing these challenges. The Journal’s off-topic contributions addressed the importance of energy connectivity in shaping the relationship between Azerbaijan and Armenia, the roles of new extra-regional actors in the South Caucasus and the historical backgrounds of the crimes committed in the South Caucasus, notably towards Azerbaijanis.
