Abstract

With increasing economic dependence of world on hydrocarbon ENERGY resources, and ongoing tensions in the Middle East and the emergence of RUSSIA as a major player in the global ENERGY market, the resources of oil and gas in Central Asia and their transportation routes to consumer markets have been greatly considered by the great industrial powers. There have been decades of long struggles over controlling natural oil and gas resources and infrastructures, and influence of central Asia that has been called "the new great game" between Europe, CHINA, RUSSIA and America, and each of these powers were trying to outpace each other in order to obtain more influence in the region. In the years of the Soviet Union collapse and the discovery of huge reserves of oil and gas in Central Asia, the competition between the great powers has been intensified. On the one hand, the RUSSIAns by confining all the exporting routes of their land have tended to maintain their traditional influence and control over the newly independent states. On the other hand, the United States has entered in the region as a serious competitor, and as a fan of the paths that will lead to its own long-term goals and geopolitical interests. Also, CHINA with its strong incentives to be present in Central Asia and to challenge the hegemonic policies of America and also to achieve the regional ENERGY resources and huge market has entered in this competition. Although RUSSIA is the major power in Central Asia's resources, the presence of new players such as America, and especially CHINA and the efforts of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan to find alternative ways to transport oil and gas have faced the RUSSIAn interests with some challenges in the region. Accordingly, the authors of this article ask this question: who is going to win the power game of having control over Central Asia's resources?Our hypothesis is that due to CHINA's economic growth and the need of this country to the huge oil and gas resources as well as the development of Beijing's relationships with Central Asian neighbors, in the future CHINA will be the main power in the region.
