Abstract
 One of the topics and issues that influence the development and progress of countries
today and in the age of information is the formation of regional unions and regional
organizations. Looking at the scope of the world, we can see that countries in regional
organizations all over the world have not been able to achieve a regional link and regional
grouping, while the formation of regional organizations influences the development
process of countries in all its dimensions, as the European Union has shown this issue. In
the Central and Eastern European region, the formation of a regional organization that can
speed up the path of development, especially economic development, has not yet been
established, but in Central Asia, despite the existence of the Eurasian Economic Union
and even the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, the countries of this region are
experiencing economic growth. They are not suitable for the regional geostrategic
position. However, due to the influence of these regions on the international system, they
are still in the center of attention. The main purpose of this article is to explain the effect
of the absence of regional organizations on the economic growth of countries in Central
Europe, Eastern Europe and Central Asia. The research method used in this article is
descriptive-analytical and library sources were utilized. The results of the findings show
that although there has been economic growth in these regions, due to the regional and
international crises as well as the lack of a regional organization, economic growth in
Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia is not stable. It has not been stable and
continuous
