Within the framework of the visit, we noted that the establishment of industrial cooperation in promising fields such as gas-chemistry, textiles, electrical engineering, pharmaceuticals, and jewelry would be equally beneficial for both sides. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you once again that we are ready to create all conditions in our country for our Egyptian partners to implement mutually beneficial projects.

Of course, our peoples are closely connected by common religion, similar values and century-old friendship ties. It is true to say that today we are restoring common spiritual ties between two brotherly peoples. We had a great dialogue on many issues, on science and education. Once again, we saw that there is a great reason to continue our work in the future,” the leader of Uzbekistan said.
