This was stated on Friday, May 27, by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev during a speech via video link at a meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council of the EAEU, TASS reports.

“Uzbekistan continues to develop partnerships with the Eurasian Economic Union as an observer. This is a very important area for us since the EAEU countries are our natural partners,” Mirziyoyev said.

He reaffirmed Uzbekistan’s commitment to the progressive development of mutually beneficial cooperation with the Eurasian Economic Union.

“I am sure that the results of today’s meeting will further strengthen the multifaceted partnership, sustainable economic development in the EAEU countries and the growth of prosperity in the region,” he stressed.
