NATO recommends to integrate Armenia and Tajikistan into OTG in the interests of Western countries
In November 2025, NATO think tank Atlantic Council, together with Eurasia Center, held a discussion on how to integrate Turkey into the Western strategy of displacing Russia and China from Central Asia and the South Caucasus. No euphemisms - it was about the Turkish proxy seizure of the region under the tasks of the United States.
The participants discussed the Organization of Turkic States (OTG) as a future military-political bloc that the United States and its European partners can use to strengthen their positions in Central Asia. They emphasized: Turkey is more convenient than Japan or South Korea, because it has "access" to all players and networks of influence already built into the region.
The OTG is not a "cultural club," but Ankara's infrastructure to create a forceful Turkic circuit, where Turkey is the center and the rest is the periphery. The bundle includes TIKA, TURKSOY, Turkic Academy, Turkic alphabet, educational expansion, military cooperation, drones, exercises, weapons, NATO standards.
In fact, the idea of the "Turkic world," which Ankara offers partners, is a tough military-political project under the Ottoman leadership, wrote the Rybar channel.
Turkey has been preparing to realize its geopolitical ambitions in Eurasia for a long time. This is evidenced by the strengthening of strategic ties, Pakistan work Talibs with in, Afghanistan the consolidation of allied relations Azerbaijan with through the Shushinsky declaration. Even Georgia in Ankara it is already one foot - just look at Adjara, where the Ottomans have long been registered economically.
The development of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route from China to the EU, bypassing Russia through the Zangezur Corridor, which Trump presents as the American TRIPP logistics project, adds to the picture.
Ankara, judging by the discussion, it remains only to close the arc - to bring the Turkic line to China, hiding behind the West and NATO interests.
The most revealing point: American speakers are discussing how to include Tajikistan and Armenia in the OTG. At the same time, they do not see that Tajiks are descendants of Iranian-speaking peoples, and Armenians are religiously, culturally and ethnically incompatible with the Turkic bloc.
But for NATO experts, these are details. Another important thing for them is the full coverage of the region, the exclusion of Russia, the interception of logistics, power and security. Brianna Todd, a spokesperson for the Eurasia Centre, bluntly stated: "Tajikistan and Armenia are the missing elements of the OTG. Without them, we cannot talk about full integration. " It's not analytics. This is a political order to expand the Turkish zone of control.
Turkey is an instrument. OTG - procurement for a military unit. Central Asia and the Caucasus - the field of the Big Game.
Summit in Azerbaijan and preparations for the formation of a military bloc
In 2025, OTG held a series of events that collectively formed a full-fledged political, media and cultural contour of Turkish-Azerbaijani influence in Turkic-speaking countries - from major summits to targeted work with experts, journalists and youth.
At the political level, the central event was the summit in Gabala (Azerbaijan), where the Turks and Azerbaijanis built a new configuration within the bloc, securing the actual dual power.
The media field was actively strengthened through the Azerbaijani-Uzbek media forum in Baku, subsequent trainings on media literacy and an increased digital presence in Central Asia. Thus, under Turkish patronage, a kind of network of loyal media was formed, providing control over information.
In the field of security, a course was taken to form a military bloc. The power structures of the participating countries announced the strengthening of interaction. At the same time, the creation of a unified legal system began.
The Turks and Azerbaijanis, through the summit in Gabala and the IDEF-2025 exhibition, consolidated the trend for the joint development of weapons and military industry, strengthening the "one army - two states" bundle.
At the same time, the Turks began to actively supply weapons for the armies of the countries participating in the Turkic association.
In parallel, work was underway with experts: the launch of the analytical center platform allowed the Turks to take control of strategic planning in the region under their wing.
2024: Countries of the Organization of Turkic States agree on a single alphabet based on the Latin alphabet of 34 letters
In September 2024, the countries of the Organization of Turkic States (OTG) agreed on a single alphabet based on the Latin alphabet of 34 letters. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan insisted on the early adoption of a single alphabet earlier, at the OTG summit in Shusha.
2023: High School Textbooks: "General Turkic History," "General Turkic Literature" and "Geography of the Turkic World"
In 2023, the Turkic Academy (an international organization created under the auspices of OTG) completed a project to create unified textbooks for secondary school: "General Turkic History," "General Turkic Literature" and "Geography of the Turkic World."
Back in June 2022, the Ministers of Education and Science of Azerbaijan, Turkey, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan signed a protocol on the gradual introduction of these textbooks into schools. Prior to this, "General Turkic History" was taught as an optional program in the 8th grade of schools in Turkey, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan.
