Civil War Likely in Tajikistan; Part One
Monday 28 September 2015
Alwaght- West Asia events are developing so fast that not only make impacts on neighboring regions such as the Central Asia but also they make the political observers and analysts fully confused. The emergence of the ISIS terrorist group with a joint Western-Arabic design, beside the Turkey’s negative role and attendance in Syria and Iraq have paved the way for persistence and growth of the so called Islamic takfiri and ideological movement in the susceptible and acceptant region. Meanwhile, Afghanistan is among the most vulnerable countries open to the ISIS's rise and development, however, not an ISIS whose members fight for their ideology but a local and instrumental one whose members are mercenaries who only aim to make more money. Such a movement would be able to get access to the Central Asia, Tajikistan in particular. Some experts familiar with the region's development predict that that after decrease in the ISIS’s activities in Syria and Iraq and after settling down the Yemeni crisis, penetration of the ISIS in Tajikistan and Turkmenistan would be the priority of the US and its allies.

The party won eight per cent of the votes in the previous parliamentary election in Tajikistan, two seats out of the country's 63 parliamentary seats. However, in the last parliamentary election held in March, 2015, the party failed to pass the five per cent election threshold, failing to gain any seat in the Tajik parliament. In these conditions, Muhiddin Kabiri, the head of the party traveled abroad and did not return to Tajikistan. In fact, fear of being arrested for a court case against him, and the growing speculations over banning the activities of the Islamic Renaissance Party, and the criticism against the performance of the party were so intense while the leaders of the party expressed their concerns over government activism in the election and post-election period. The leaders of the party argued that the crackdown of Dushanbe government has practically prevented their entry into the Parliament.
