Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- On 24 November 2018, the Senate hosted a meeting of the Chairman of the Senate of Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan Nigmatulla Yuldoshev with the parliamentary delegation of the Republic of Belarus headed by the Deputy Chairman of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly Mariana Shchetkina.
During the conversation, the sides discussed issues of further strengthening inter-parliamentary cooperation between Uzbekistan and Belarus, as well as the preparation and holding in 2019 in Minsk of the Forum of the Regions of the two countries.
It was noted that the parties attach great importance to expansion and deepening of multi-faceted Uzbek-Belarusian cooperation, and first of all, in the sphere of inter-parliamentary ties. Bilateral relations in the political, trade, economic, investment and cultural-humanitarian spheres are built on the principles of traditional friendship, trust and mutual interest. Belarus is one of the important and promising partners of our country.
Attention was focused on the untapped possibilities in using the existing investment and scientific potential, increasing the volume of bilateral trade. The first Uzbek-Belarusian forum of business and interregional cooperation held in September of this year was a clear confirmation of this. According to its results, 82 contracts worth over US$100 million were signed.
The parties stressed that the holding of forums of the regions of both countries contributes to the development of Uzbekistan and Belarus by expanding direct contacts and creating conditions for cooperation, including at the level of the legislative and executive branches of government, between business and entrepreneurship.
The parties underlined their readiness to continue to make every effort to strengthen bilateral cooperation in all areas, including the intensification of inter-parliamentary dialogue.
