The foreign policy of modern Uzbekistan is focused on taking concrete measures to further strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation and long-term multilateral partnerships with all countries worldwide.

Uzbekistan’s trade relations with the United States have shown steady expansion over the past decade. In 2024, Uzbekistan exported $431 million worth of goods to the U.S. – a tenfold increase compared to 2014 ($42.4 million). The share of the U.S. in Uzbekistan’s total exports rose from 0.3% in 2014 to 1.6% in 2024, reflecting gradual diversification toward high-value markets.

Today one of the priority directions of Uzbekistan’s foreign policy is the expansion of strategic partnerships and the exchange of modern knowledge and scientific innovations. In this process, cooperation with the United States–especially in higher education, science, and innovation–is reaching a new level.

President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev has arrived in Washington on a working visit to participate in the “C5+1” summit of the leaders of Central Asian countries and the United States and to hold meetings with U.S. President Donald Trump, members of the Senate and the House of Representatives, as well as heads of U.S. government departments and agencies.

A presentation of the literary and publicistic collection “Uzbekistan: Third Renaissance – Concept of the Future” was held in Islamabad, written in Urdu by renowned Pakistani journalist and author Muhammad Abbas Khan, explores Uzbekistan’s modern development vision and reform agendat.

If the greatest gift given to human is life, then, without a doubt, the highest goal that humanity has always strived for is peace and harmony. That is why we always wish each other peace and tranquility, health and well-being.

Modern Central Asia is becoming a space of sustainable growth and mutual trust. The countries of the region demonstrate a strong commitment to building balanced relations with global partners, prioritizing practical initiatives in trade, energy, transport, and innovation. One of the key formats shaping this new architecture is the “C5+1” platform, which unites the Central Asian states and the United States.

In recent years, Uzbekistan has significantly intensified its cooperation with Central Asian countries in the areas of environmental protection, sustainable natural resource management, and combating climate change. Joint programs, signed agreements, and multilateral initiatives have laid the foundation for creating a unified ecological space in the region — one built on the principles of sustainability and shared responsibility toward nature.
