The agreements were signed in such key sectors as exploitation of oil, gas and uranium fields in the Central Asian state.
The two sides also signed a document to make changes to an Uzbekistan-China gas pipeline agreement signed a few years ago. The changes were due to the planned construction of a fourth branch of the Turkmenistan-China gas pipeline.
Since 2002, China has invested more than US$6 billion in the Uzbek economy, and the volume of two-way trade reached US$3.4 billion last year. One of priorities of two states is to increase the trade turnover between our countries to US$5 billion by 2017.
