 Leaders summarize the talks

During a meeting with the media, Presidents Mirziyoyev and Khürelsükh shared their impressions of the discussions.

“We sincerely welcome the notable successes and achievements of our Mongolian friends in implementing socio-economic reforms, and we fully support your peaceful foreign policy,” the Uzbek leader said.
