Description

This week we take a look at the ongoing fallout from the January protests in Kazakhstan. Japarov meeting with President Xi, Cyberattacks in Kyrgyzstan, a former president's daughter having assets seized, more build-up on the Afghan-Tajik border, a ban on facemasks in Turkmenistan and of course our main story this week to the announcement of snap elections in Turkmenistan. Will we see huge changes in Central Asia's most reclusive government, or will this be the beginning of a new political dynasty?  Joining us this week.  - Luca Ancheschi (Uni of Glasgow) Follow the show on @SLonCentralAsia For more info please visit - www.oxussociety.org Presented by the Oxus Society for Central Asian Affairs
