Parliamentarianism in the Face of Global Challenges

Parliaments play a key role in the system of democratic governance, ensuring the representation of citizens' interests, exercising oversight of the executive branch, and carrying out legislative functions. In the context of increasing global polarization, declining trust in state institutions, and growing pressure on freedom of expression and parliamentary independence, the question of rethinking and strengthening the role of parliaments becomes particularly relevant.

During the conversation, views were exchanged on the development of cultural and humanitarian relations between Uzbekistan and Oman, the exchange of experience in the field of studying historical and religious and educational heritage, and the implementation of joint projects in these areas.

The Omani side was informed about the tourism potential of our country, the infrastructure created in this area, the introduction of a 30-day visa-free regime for citizens of the Gulf Arab countries, in particular Omanis, to Uzbekistan, and the planned launch of direct flights on the Muscat-Tashkent route in the near future.

During the meeting, issues of establishing academic ties, exchanging experiences, and organizing visits between the Oman Royal Academy of Administration and the Academy of Public Policy and Governance under the President of Uzbekistan were discussed.
