The Domino Effect! Uzbekistan has sanctioned Russia, and Putin can only rely on China

Mondo Tourism Updated on 2024-02-20

The effect of dominoes is becoming more and more obvious! Uzbekistan is also involved in the sanctions against Russia, a diplomatic move that makes one wonder: Is the only thing Putin can rely on is China?

According to reports, the parliament of Uzbekistan passed a bill on banning financial operations against Russia, which will be included in one of the sanctions measures imposed on Russia. This decision may have a positive effect on China. Russia's "Herald" believes that Uzbekistan did not thoroughly support Russia when it decided to participate in sanctions against Russia. On the contrary, the operation can be traced back to Russia's control and operation of Central Asia. In fact, Uzbekistan has made its position clear, refusing to participate in the "gas union" initiated by Russia and insisting that it can buy its own gas independently, without being dependent on any one alliance or alliance.

Uzbekistan's move this time is in essence a departure from Russia and a demonstration of its independence from Russia.

Russia's focus has been mainly on Central Asia, while neglecting its "backyard" – Central Asia, thus giving the United States and Europe an opportunity to take advantage of. For example, many Central Asian countries have clearly expressed their opposition to Russia's position on Afghan territory, but they have opened their doors to the United States and stepped up their relations with China, especially the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway, at a time when Russia is unable to exercise effective control over Central Asia.

This resolution of Uzbekistan greatly affected Russia. Ukraine's proposed bill, which is intended to circumvent the dangers posed by the double sanctions imposed by the United States and Europe, would impose sanctions on more than 11,000 Russians and many companies if implemented. In particular, in 2022 alone, there were 300,000 Russian tourists in Uzbekistan, 60,000 people opened accounts in Uzbekistan, and the amount of money sent by the Russian Federation to Uzbekistan soared by 160% to a record $14.5 billion.

Once Uzbekistan participates in the sweeping sanctions against Russia, Russian people and businesses will soon face billions of funds frozen.

Such "secondary sanctions" have had a huge impact on Russia, almost plunging Russia into a state of no return. Russia's current provocative move is unsettling to its neighbors, and Uzbekistan's move will signal other Central Asian countries to follow suit. It also means that Russia's ability to control Central Asia will be further weakened.

There are only a few that Russia can rely on at the moment. Although some people may think that China will help Russia, China and Europe have not completely separated from each other, and China and the United States have not completely dissociated, and China will not give up the more than one billion yuan market of the United States and Europe just because of a large market of 140 million.

China's aid is likely to be limited to the economy. North Korea and Iran, on the other hand, can only provide some support in areas such as conventional**, and these support will not play a decisive role in Russia's current predicament.

In this case, Russia must find a way to solve this problem, instead of continuing to fight a protracted war with Ukraine. Even if it is a huge family, it cannot ignore the danger, otherwise it will be a failure. Due to the long-term war, Russia's strength has been greatly reduced, and it may even fall from a second-tier power to a third-tier power. Could it be that 140 million Russians are looking forward to such an ending? The war not only dealt a huge blow to the country's economy, but also brought a huge impact on people's daily lives. Uzbekistan has already begun to try to participate in sanctions against Russia, and in the event that this conflict does not end soon, Uzbekistan will be the first to do so.

Uzbekistan is also involved in sanctions against Russia, which has dealt a huge blow to Russia. The move could create a domino effect in other parts of Central Asia. Russia's war has unnerved its neighbors, and Uzbekistan's decision has made Russia's influence in Central Asia even more vulnerable. Uzbekistan's move is likely to have a series of knock-on effects, the consequences of which will not only be for Russia itself, but will also have a profound impact on the global geography.

Uzbekistan's resolution may prompt other Central Asian countries to impose joint sanctions against Russia. In the face of Russia's provocative actions and the tensions of its neighbors, it is likely that the Central Asian countries will be more cautious with Russia, build closer relations with other countries, and pursue a multilateral and balanced foreign policy. If other Central Asian countries were to participate in joint operations against Russia, Russia's international standing would be further weakened, making it increasingly isolated.

Uzbekistan's decision will affect relations between China and Russia to some extent. At present, relations between China and Russia are relatively stable, but if Uzbekistan also participates in the sanctions against Russia, then it is necessary for China to reflect on its relationship with Russia. China's investment in Central Asia and the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative are inseparable from good cooperation with other countries, so it is necessary for China to rethink Russia's foreign policy on the basis of careful trade-offs.

This resolution of Uzbekistan also shows that Russia is ostracized by the world. Russia has gradually lost several of its old alliances amid the growing crisis in Ukraine, and Uzbekistan's move is further proof of this. Russia's belligerence has caused it to lose its influence in the world, which is not conducive to coping with the current crisis.

Uzbekistan's move may bring some tension within Russia. Russia is currently facing a whole host of internal problems, and the difficulties it is experiencing on the diplomatic front will create even more problems within it. The public may be more skeptical of the new foreign policy and call for more practical and strong international collaboration. This will profoundly change the political situation in Russia in the future.

Uzbekistan's participation in the sanctions against Russia will not only have a direct impact on Russia's geographical position in Central Asia, but will also cause a wider range of international repercussions. Faced with this situation, Russia must seriously reflect and adjust accordingly in accordance with the overall interests of the country. The resolution also warns other countries to exercise caution in their international activities so as not to get involved in war and to maintain world peace and stability.
