520    This report attempts to put the Caspian Basin and Central 
       Asia into a comprehensive strategic perspective at a time 
       when NATO is increasingly concerned with challenges on its
       periphery. The authors examine NATO's interests, 
       capabilities, and constraints as well as the salient 
       trends and factors shaping the regional security 
       environment. In spite of the region's potential energy 
       riches and the jockeying for influence among major powers 
       and oil interests, the authors suggest that NATO should 
       see the region as a potential quagmire rather than as a 
       vacuum waiting to be filled. The report discusses Western 
       objectives and interests in the Caspian, internal and 
       intraregional threats to Western interests, the 
       competition for influence among outside powers, 
       transnational threats, Caspian oil and energy security, 
       and implications for NATO and Western policy and planning.
       The authors conclude that the West has limited interests 
       and leverage in the Caspian Basin, and the Alliance should
       focus on promoting the restructuring and 
       professionalization of indigenous armed forces, while 
       resisting new commitments and security responsibilities in
       the region.
