Uzbekistan ready to support Afghan youth to obtain higher education in the country
Foreign Minister of Uzbekistan Abdulaziz Kamilov, in Brussels, attended a ceremonial event dedicated to the launch of the program “Supporting the economic rights and opportunities of Afghan women through education and training in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan”.
In his address to those present, Kamilov emphasized that the European Union’s program for training Afghan women in agriculture, applied sciences and mining represents a unique opportunity to involve them in the social and political life of the country.
In this regard, the Foreign Minister of Uzbekistan noted the prospects for a number of EU projects in this area, including the interaction established in the tripartite format “EU-Uzbekistan-Afghanistan” for the training of Afghan students, including women, in the Educational Center in Termez, which makes its significant contribution to the process of creating a base of highly qualified specialists for Afghanistan.
Confidence was expressed that by common targeted actions it would be possible to make a feasible contribution to solving the whole range of tasks facing Afghan society.
