Uzbekistan and the Czech Republic are entering a new phase in their relationship, building on the strong foundation laid over more than three decades. During this period, Uzbek-Czech ties have evolved from largely ceremonial contacts into a system of substantive engagement spanning political dialogue, trade, investment, and cultural and humanitarian exchange. Today, as Uzbekistan deepens its connections across Europe, the Czech Republic stands out as one of its most prominent partners in Central Europe.
During the conversation, issues related to the development of cooperation between Uzbekistan and Japan in the trade and economic sphere were discussed.
During the meeting, the parties discussed further strengthening cooperation between Uzbekistan and Oman in the fields of ecology, sustainable use of natural resources, and combating climate change, as well as a number of other related issues.
The exhibition will bring together more than 100 companies and brands from 12 countries.
The specialised international exhibition of the beauty, cosmetology, and perfumery-cosmetics industry – Beauty Uzbekistan 2026 – will take place from April 28 to April 30 at the CAEx Uzbekistan exhibition complex in Tashkent.
The Fifth Tashkent International Investment Forum will take place on June 16–19, 2026. This year’s theme – “Investment Resilience: New Frontiers, New Partnerships” – frames the agenda around a set of pressing questions: how to protect capital amid global uncertainty, what institutional mechanisms enhance investment resilience in frontier markets, and where the new partnership routes lie.
Today, climate change stands as one of the most urgent and complex global challenges, with its negative effects being particularly acute in ecologically fragile regions under high anthropogenic pressure. One such area is the Aral Sea region, where the consequences of climate change are having a far-reaching impact on the state of natural resources, the living standards of the population, and economic activities.
On April 22, the next Summit of the International Fund for Saving the Aral Sea (IFAS) – one of the region's prominent organizations – will take place in Astana.
At the outset, I would like to express my special gratitude to His Excellency Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, for his initiative to host the Regional Ecological Summit, the high level of its organization, and the traditionally warm hospitality.
