Shavkat Mirziyoyev is planning to visit Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and South Korea by the end of 2021, he announced this summing up his recent trip to Russia.
“In Russia, we discussed increasing our economic cooperation by 2-3 times, exchanged views on large projects worth $14.5 billion. One thing is for sure, the current numbers should increase rapidly. The most important thing for this is trust. Only if there is trust between states, these deeds will be fulfilled. On Sunday we will go to Ashgabat, then to Kazakhstan, then to Korea. Why? Because we must quickly attract investors to Uzbekistan. We must quickly create conditions for them,” a Kun.uz correspondent quoted the president as saying.
