Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Uzbekistan believes that efficient overcoming of the global crisis and mitigating its consequences in many ways depends on efficiency and coordination of measures taken within individual states and the world community as a whole, the Uzbek Foreign Minister Vladimir Norov said at the 64th session of the UN General Assembly.

Speaking about measures on overcoming of the global crisis and mitigating its consequences in Uzbekistan, Norov said the Uzbek model of transition from centralized and ideological system to free market and anti-crisis programme for 2009-2012 played key role in stable and successful development of the country.
