	Tajikistan: Abdullajanov and the 'third force'
		However, the political elite from the Leninabad region was not formally represented in the negotiations.
		This was taken as a serious affront by the Leninabadi elite, who dominated the politics of Tajikistan for nearly four decades and provided financial and logistical support to the Kulobi faction in the most intense period of the civil war in May-December 1992.

		Many political analysts hold the view that the newly independent states of Central Asia will find it difficult to overcome their dependency relationship with Moscow and that they will continue to be tied to Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) for a long time.

		If the political system cannot mitigate their distrust and is unable to accommodate them in the political domain, their perspective becomes more parochial with negative or indifferent orientations towards the state-centric national identity and the political process.
