Another busy week in Central Asia. This episode we take a look at Nazarbayev making a rare appearance, Nur-Sultan putting limits on coal exports ahead of a likely cold winter, smuggler tunnels being discovered in Krygyzstan, Uzbekistan blocking Twitter, a stern warning by the Uzbek government for citizens leaving to fight for Russia, a regional chess triumph, Afghanistan paying its bills to one Central Asian country, whilst also refusing to pay another, US-Backed military drills kicking off in the region, and the Turkmen government entering a nearly billion dollar lawsuit against a Belarussian state company. We also take a look at the myriad of smuggling tunnels being discovered in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, and find out what they are being used for?
