Today, we mark another milestone in #Uzbekistan - #Canada bilaterals - 30 years of diplomatic relations. Over the last three decades, we've been witnessing ever-strengthening partnerships, bolstered by regular political consultations and the Uzbekistan-Canada Friendship Group at the Parliament of Canada. There has been a vigorous increase in trade between Uzbekistan and Canada, and it continues to grow. Last year, trade turnover grew 12 times compared to 2019. Moreover, Canadian companies were among the first Western businesses in Uzbekistan tiptoeing an emerging market of New Uzbekistan. We have no doubt that our relationship will grow only stronger in the years ahead.

Where to go in May for budget adventures and bucket-list wonders

Lonely Planet puts #Uzbekistan among 10 best places to travel to in May: Caravanserais. Silk Road. Spices. #Samarkand, #Bukhara, #Khiva. There’s something undeniably romantic about travel here, which has been the cultural heart of Central Asia for millennia.
This is especially true of Uzbekistan’s trio of historic cities – Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva – which glitter with mosaic-tiled mausoleums, mosques and medressas (religious schools) that still speak of ancient times; Bukhara’s Silk and Spices Festival (late May) seeks to celebrate that legacy, showcasing the carpet weavers, wood-carvers, musicians and artists still practising traditional skills. Indeed, May is the perfect month to visit.

Voice of America - VOA:
"President Шавкат Мирзиёев - Shavkat Mirziyoyev said his country must join the Chinese as well as Korean and Japanese food production chains as soon as possible. He also urged the Uzbek embassies in Europe, Turkey and India to reach out to local companies.

Excerpts from The Oxus Society for Central Asian Affairs' Broadcast:
Jennifer Murtazashvili: Since 2017 we have seen a real effort of Gov.uz to get rid of forced and child labor & this is not an easy decision. So, I think this is a monumental change. And it's good to see that independent organizations like International Labour Organization have been observing these changes.

Jonas Astrup: The whole reform strategy's been to reposition #Uzbekistan away from being an exporter of raw cotton and to become a manufacturer of textile and garment products... And It's true that president Шавкат Мирзиёев - Shavkat Mirziyoyev has provided the political will and the space for this to happen.

#SteveSwerdlow: It was the result of a unique combination and collaboration between the government, civil society, and private sector. #Uzbekistan is moving into the cluster system, which is a collection of private entities that are now vertically working in [email protected]
