The document was signed by Deputy Prime Minister of Uzbekistan Jamshid Khodjayev and Minister of Economic Development of Russia Maxim Reshetnikov, the press service of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation reports.
The “roadmap” was approved as part of the implementation of the memorandum of understanding between the governments of the two countries in the development of logistics corridors in Uzbekistan.
