Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) - President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev addresses the Senate and the Legislative Chamber of the Oliy Majlis.
The head of state began his speech with the results of the recent parliamentary elections, noted the importance of activity and solidarity of the population:
“Native Uzbekistan is entering a new decade. Our achievements become history, life sets new requirements for us, great opportunities open up for the implementation of even deeper transformations.
Therefore, today you and I should determine the priority areas and tasks for the development of the country in 2020, for the next five years as a whole.
According to the results of the recent campaign under the motto “New Uzbekistan - new elections”, a new political atmosphere has been formed in the republic, which allows raising the ongoing democratic reforms to a higher level.
The elections, which were held in the conditions of openness and transparency, based on international standards, were attended by 825 observers from almost 50 countries and from 10 international organizations.
For the first time, we worked closely with the full-fledged mission of the Bureau for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, consisting of 316 people.
International observers emphasized that the elections were held in an environment of healthy competition, heated debates and discussions between political parties, with a significantly increased role for the media.
On behalf of all our people, I express to all international observers sincere gratitude for the objective opinions and recommendations regarding the improvement of the electoral process in Uzbekistan.
We will deeply study each of these recommendations, adopt and widely implement relevant programs in practice.
In this regard, an important task for us is to increase the electoral culture of the population, the political activity of parties, and to improve the system of their work with their voters.
At the same time, special attention should be paid to optimizing the three-stage system of elections to local Kengashes and strengthening the role of district and city election commissions in this process.
The parliament and the Central Election Commission need to work closely together in the implementation of the tasks outlined in the election results.
I want to appeal to the deputies and senators and in their person to the whole people of Uzbekistan: democratic reforms are the only right way for us.
Based on this, we are constantly working in this direction, studying the best foreign practices and striving to change our life, style and methods of our work.
We set ourselves such a high goal as building a new Uzbekistan together with our people. On this path, a new principle is being affirmed more and more deeply in our life: "The initiator of reforms is society itself."
We need to achieve even greater activity of citizens in improving the practical effectiveness of reforms and putting forward new initiatives on the ground.
Most importantly, as a result of these transformations, we must create the conditions for a prosperous life for our people.
We should create the most favorable business environment and investment climate, increase the number of new enterprises and jobs in order to provide our people with decent income.
Of course, if we ourselves do not perform this extremely important work, then no one will come and do it for us.
Our people should understand well: we have a long and difficult path ahead of us.
If we all together will go forward, gain modern knowledge, work honestly and fruitfully, then our life, our entire society will certainly change for the better. I think you share my confidence in this.
