Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Today, on 25 March, Minister for the Development of Information Technologies and Communications Sherzod Shermatov held a meeting with the Secretary General of Cooperation between Turkic Speaking States Baghdad Amreev.

During the meeting, promising areas of cooperation were discussed within the framework of the activities of the Cooperation Council of Turkic Speaking States, aimed at further digital integration of the member countries, including in the areas of e-government, telecommunications, mobile communications.

Particular attention was paid to such an important and promising area as the development of BPO and KPO services.
