Uzbekistan Prioritizes Peaceful Relations with Neighbors, Says Foreign Minister Kamilov
Recently, the Central Asian region has made significant strides in enhancing regional cooperation and unity. This transformation comes after years of border conflicts and water disputes that weakened the countries in the area. However, a new era of cooperation has been ushered in, symbolized by the sixth Consultative Meeting of the leaders of Central Asian states in Astana.
Abdulaziz Kamilov, the Special Representative of the President of Uzbekistan on Foreign Policy Issues, highlighted the importance of the “Central Asia – 2040” concept, which represents a unified vision for regional cooperation. The document outlines practical plans for the future and establishes mechanisms for implementation in key areas of mutual cooperation.
The Central Asian countries have come a long way since the first meeting in Astana in 2018. Efforts have been made to transform the region into a space of peace, harmony, and good-neighborliness. Disputes over water resources and border issues have been addressed, paving the way for increased cooperation and mutual trust among neighboring countries.
President Shavkat Mirziyoyev of Uzbekistan has played a crucial role in fostering regional cooperation. Under his leadership, Uzbekistan has prioritized strengthening relations with Central Asian countries. The President’s comprehensive Foreign Policy Doctrine emphasizes the importance of maintaining political dialogue with neighboring states and international organizations.
The Central Asian region has become a top priority for Uzbekistan’s foreign policy. By promoting openness, equality, and mutual respect, Uzbekistan aims to create a zone of friendship and prosperity around itself. President Mirziyoyev has tasked the government with addressing key regional issues and fostering cooperation in various sectors.
The recent developments in Central Asia signify a new chapter in the region’s history. Through enhanced cooperation and coordination, the countries in Central Asia are working towards creating a more stable and prosperous future for all. The commitment to mutual respect and collaboration among Central Asian states bodes well for the region’s continued progress and development.
