A briefing was held for media representatives following the first day of the state visit of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

The President of Uzbekistan and the Prime Minister of Pakistan noted with satisfaction the results of the negotiations, which traditionally took place in an atmosphere of openness and trust.

Speaking to reporters, the head of our state once again congratulated the Pakistani people on the upcoming Pakistan Day. The President emphasized that the current visit is symbolically taking place on the eve of a major historical event – the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries. The intensification of a constructive dialogue at the highest level, especially in recent years, predetermined the dynamic growth of the level of partnership and trust between Uzbekistan and Pakistan.

“Together with Pakistan, we are building a strong bridge of cooperation not only between the two countries, but also between the strategically important regions of Central and South Asia,” Shavkat Mirziyoyev emphasized.
