In our opinion, it is important to simplify the procedures for export-import operations in order to ensure further growth in trade turnover.

We also support the formation of agro-industrial clusters based on the principles of public-private partnership and expansion of “green corridors” network in supply of agricultural products”, said the President of Uzbekistan.

The need for effectively using the transport and transit potential of the SCO space, relevance of implementing interregional transport projects within the framework of “One Belt, One Road” initiative was noted.

It was emphasized that Uzbekistan supports the construction of Mazar-i-Sharif – Herat, China – Kyrgyzstan – Uzbekistan railway lines, as well as development of trans-regional corridors of Central Asia – Persian Gulf, North – South and East – West.

The President of Uzbekistan expressed his proposals on the issues of joint implementation of innovative programs and projects in the fields of high technologies, digital economy, alternative energy and modern medicine.
