How the world sees this country this week: the news abroad, pictures and videos.

Tajikistan, officially the Republic of Tajikistan, is a landlocked country in Central Asia. Dushanbe, its capital, is its largest and most populous city, with a population of over 1.2 million. Tajikistan borders Afghanistan to the south, Uzbekistan to the west, Kyrgyzstan to the north, and China to the east; it is narrowly separated from Pakistan by Afghanistan's Wakhan Corridor. Its total population exceeds 11 million. The territory was previously home to cultures of the Neolithic and the Bronze Age, including the Oxus civilisation in the west.
