Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- On 22 January, the Institute for Strategic and Interregional Studies under the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan (ISMI) hosted a meeting with the Charge d’Affaires of the Embassy of Japan in the Republic of Uzbekistan Atsushi Suda.
During the conversation, the meeting participants analyzed the state of bilateral cooperation in 2020 and exchanged views on promising directions for the development of relations between Uzbekistan and Japan for the coming years.
Atsushi Suda, highly appreciating the Address of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev to the Oliy Majlis as a strategic program document for the country’s development, focused on the importance of the tasks set in it.
It was emphasized that the reforms carried out under the leadership of the Head of Uzbekistan in the socio-economic, legal and other spheres are in demand in the current conditions of overcoming the negative consequences of the pandemic. The firm readiness of Tokyo to provide full support to Tashkent in their implementation was expressed.
At the same time, according to the Japanese diplomat, Tashkent’s proactive and dynamic foreign policy contributed to positive changes in Central Asia and outlined clear vectors for establishing close good-neighborly relations with neighboring countries and partners around the world.
At the meeting, special emphasis was also placed on the dynamics of strengthening the multifaceted Uzbek-Japanese partnership. As Atsushi Suda noted, despite the coronavirus pandemic, Japan and Uzbekistan were able to adapt to new realities and maintain a high level of bilateral cooperation. This is confirmed by the continuous and active dialogue between the ministries and departments of the two countries on topical issues of interaction of mutual interest.
It was stated that the agreements reached on trade and economic cooperation between the countries within the framework of the visit of the Uzbek government delegation to Tokyo in December 2020 brought the Uzbek-Japanese relations to a qualitatively new level. The major joint events planned for the current year, such as the 3rd meeting of the inter-parliamentary forum, as well as the regular meetings of the committees of the two countries on economic cooperation, are clear evidence of this.
Following the meeting, the parties agreed to intensify the expert dialogue in the new year and hold a number of events to exchange views on a wide range of issues on the bilateral and multilateral agenda.
