Summary/Abstract: In this article, Russia’s foreign policy towards the Central Asian countries after gaining its independence was examined. The questions determined as research questions were answered and examined in a detailed and understandable way. I have divided my study in three parts. In the first chapter, I have analyzed the general politics between the Russian diplomacy. We divided Russia’s process after 1991 into two parts and examined Boris Yeltsin’s foreign policy preferences towards Central Asia and Vladimir Putin’s foreign policy preferences towards Central Asia. We mentioned that these two presidents have different attitudes. We will examine our investigations in this section in more detail later in our research.
