Eurasian Fund for Stability and Development to Fund Renovation of Tajikistan’s Roads

The Eurasian Fund for Stabilization and Development (EFSD) has announced that it will allocate funds to renovate Tajikistan's main roads. The work will involve construction of 51 anti-avalanche galleries, extending to over 5,200 meters, in vulnerable sections of Tajikistan’s highways. Established in 2009 to operate in Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan, the EFSD promotes economic and financial stability in these countries to support their sustainable development. The Times of Central Asia has previously reported that the EFSD's financing of the Rogun hydroelectric power plant is one of the main risks to Tajikistan’s budget and debt sustainability. Analysts from the fund have emphasized that “in the face of uncertainty regarding funding sources, starting in 2025, the government of Tajikistan may have additional needs for budgetary support from international financial organizations.”
