Financial Implications Of The Russia-Ukraine War On Central Asia With Eric Livny & Trevor Cullinan

Why you should watch: Central Asia’ strategic position between bear and panda giants has long determined the region's economic and political prospects. It has now become a key piece of today’s geopolitical puzzle. How is the Russia-Ukraine war affecting Central Asian countries? Who are the winners and losers from the energy and food crisis? Are western sanctions on Russia a threat or an opportunity? Is Central Asia an effective outlet for an increasingly isolated Russia? And what can we expect from China once it opens its borders?
