The global political situation is evolving and changing, especially in conditions when the countries of Central Asia become attractive to foreign transnational corporations (TNCs). But there is a question regarding the necessity of attracting foreign TNCs and endangering other countries, if there is an opportunity to develop national corporations, which in turn can enter the markets of other countries and influence such geopolitical processes in the world as economic restructuring, pace of development, transformation of the world economic hierarchy, and extension of integration processes. It is necessary to analyse these tendencies and form an appropriate domestic policy guided by the principles of sustainable development. In the context of globalisation, transnationalisation is determined by the activities of TNCs. The authors analysed the role and place of TNCs in the processes of globalisation, the formation of national interests and security of the country evidence from the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Central Asian Region (CAR). The main purpose of the study is to identify the challenges and threats posed by transnational corporations on the development of the countrys economy, to identify specific areas and spheres of influence of these forces on the foreign and domestic policies of sovereign states, primarily on the violation of national interests and sovereignty of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the CAR countries. Therefore, for Kazakhstan and the CAR countries, it is very important not only to determine the maximum possibilities for maintaining national sovereignty, but also to develop measures to prevent the weakening of the countrys security from transnational corporations.
