Another interview published on the Paradigma.uz platform discussed the likelihood of further escalation of the Kashmir conflict against the backdrop of successive regional wars in the 20s of the 21st century. First the large-scale war between Russia and Ukraine and then the conflicts between Israel and Gaza have severely tested the international security architecture.

 

Now the problem of Kashmir, which has remained unresolved for almost a century, is once again coming to the center of attention of world politics. IAIS experts Islomkhon Gafarov and Hamza Boltaev shared their views in an interview.

 

During the interview, Islomkhon Gafarov expressed his opinion: “Today, much in the world is decided by force, not by law. The democratic bloc is on India's side in this regard”.

 

Hamza Boltaev, taking into account the balance of power in the region, military and economic factors, emphasized that any armed conflict started in South Asia poses a direct threat to the security of Central Asia.
