BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 18. The active
development of the C5 format in recent years, and now the C6
format, demonstrates that the countries of the region don't intend
to choose sides in the face of elevating geopolitical rivalry, but
are striving to strengthen their own positions, Director of the
Institute of Asian Studies of Kazakhstan Sultan Akimbekov said at
an international conference entitled 'C6: One region, shared
future—enhancing strategic dialogue', Trend reports.
"In a situation where geopolitical contradictions are becoming
unpredictable, it's important to have common interests, defend
them, and take the opportunities arising from the current
geopolitical upheavals. This is a key issue concerning the security
of both our country and other states in Central Asia and the
Caucasus, including within the Middle Corridor," he explained.
Akimbekov emphasized that the C6 format represents one possible
option for developing processes concerning the formation and
development of transport routes.
"This is both about utilizing existing infrastructure
capabilities and finding new, beneficial solutions," he
concluded.
