Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- The cancellation of the “cotton boycott” in March 2022 in Uzbekistan caused a great resonance among the global textile community. Foreign experts and the media in many publications gave their forecasts on options for the development of the Uzbek textile industry after the so-called “boycott”.

But, more than a year has passed and during this time the international community has repeatedly recognized that Uzbekistan and the country’s textile industry is a unique case of successful development in all aspects in such a short period of time.

Currently, the largest European news channel Euronews is preparing a report on the successful experience of Uzbekistan after the lifting of the “cotton boycott”. In view of this, interviews were held at the Uztekstilprom Association with the Chairman of the Association, as well as a member of the ITMF board and Ernesto Maurer, who was on a visit to Uzbekistan.

E. Maurer is also the President of CEMATEX, the organizer of the world’s largest international exhibition for textile machinery ITMA and Swissmem - the Swiss Textile Machinery Association. ITMA 2023 was remembered not only for the latest developments, but also for the visit of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
