On the one hand, there are two countries in Asia, which are in the list of the world’s largest importers of energy resources - India and China. On the other hand, the Central Asian countries (with the exception of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan) and Russia are net energy exporters, herewith this kind of export is all-important for their macroeconomic stability. It is not surprising that the problems of organizing mutually beneficial trade in energy resources throughout the Central Asian region are among the most urgent issues for all interested parties’ agenda. So, the analysis and assessment of the energy component of cooperation between the Russia, Central Asian states, China and India lies in the focus of the article. Of course, India is not directly integrated into the energy architecture of the Central Asian space, but its large domestic market is one of the drivers of energy supplies growth. Therefore, it is advisable to consider India as an external actor that has a significant impact on the ongoing processes. Current practice of multilateral participation shaping the energy dialogue can also have a great importance in the geopolitical context - as a factor of either additional cohesion or increasing contradictions in the given region.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">Исследованы роль и место региона Центральной Азии в трансграничной торговле энергоресурсами на современном этапе. С одной стороны, в Азии есть две страны, которые входят в список крупнейших мировых импортеров энергоресурсов, - Индия и Китай. С другой стороны, страны Центральной Азии (за исключением Кыргызстана и Таджикистана) и Россия являются чистыми экспортерами энергоносителей, при этом данный вид экспорта крайне важен для их макроэкономической устойчивости. Неудивительно, что проблемы организации взаимовыгодной торговли энергоресурсами во всем Центральноазиатском регионе являются одними из наиболее актуальных вопросов повестки дня всех заинтересованных сторон. Итак, в центре внимания находится анализ и оценка энергетической составляющей сотрудничества между Россией, государствами Центральной Азии, Китаем и Индией. Конечно, Индия напрямую не интегрирована в энергетическую архитектуру центральноазиатского пространства, но ее большой внутренний рынок является одним из факторов роста поставок энергоносителей. Поэтому целесообразно рассматривать Индию как внешнего субъекта, оказывающего значительное влияние на происходящие процессы. Нынешняя практика многостороннего участия в формировании энергетического диалога также может иметь большое значение в геополитическом контексте - как фактор либо дополнительной сплоченности, либо усиления противоречий в рассматриваемом регионе.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>The Central Asian region</kwd><kwd>exporters and importers</kwd><kwd>energy resources trade</kwd><kwd>energy diplomacy</kwd><kwd>multilateral cooperation</kwd><kwd>geoeconomic issues</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Центральная Азия</kwd><kwd>экспортеры и импортеры</kwd><kwd>торговля энергоресурсами</kwd><kwd>энергетическая дипломатия</kwd><kwd>многостороннее сотрудничество</kwd><kwd>геоэкономические аспекты</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Alifirova, E.
