Tajik political scientist Muhammad Shamsuddinov has shared his reflections on the TRIPP project and its prospects for the Central Asian region.  According to him, the growing momentum behind the TRIPP (Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity) project and the broader development of the Trans-Caspian transport corridor reflect a shifting balance of power in Central Eurasia. Against the backdrop of U.S.–China rivalry, sanctions pressure on Russia, and increasing rapprochement between Central Asian and South Caucasus states, new regional logistics architecture is taking shape. For Tajikistan, this transformation presents both opportunities and significant risks — including the danger of being sidelined from major transit routes.
