Foreign Policy
Tajikistan relies on Russia as its primary security guarantor, hosting a major Russian military base (201st Military Base). It participates in the CSTO and SCO but has also sought Chinese investment for infrastructure and border security. Relations with Uzbekistan have improved after decades of tension over water and energy. The Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan in 2021 heightened Tajikistan's security concerns, as Rahmon has been the most vocal Central Asian critic of the Taliban, partly due to solidarity with Afghanistan's ethnic Tajik minority.
