Abstract
Central Asia currently plays an important geopolitical role in maintaining the balance of power in Eurasia. Russia's role in the development of the situation in the region is evolving, but remains one of the leading ones. The development of modern global geopolitical processes dictates the need for the Russian Federation to search for territorial areas to strengthen its influence in order to increase the level of protection from external challenges and threats. Strategically important in this regard is the building of constructive cooperation between our country and the states of Central Asia, aimed at ensuring the comprehensive security of all parties. The features of cooperation between the Russian Federation and the countries of Central Asia in the field of security, its directions and forms are described. The key threats in the field of security and the institutional mechanisms formed to counter these threats are considered.
