    About our Uzbekistan news

    Latest news on Uzbekistan, providing comprehensive coverage of politics, economy, foreign relations, culture, and key developments in this Central Asian nation led by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev.

    Uzbekistan, with a population of over 36 million, is the most populous country in Central Asia. Since gaining independence in 1991, it has undergone significant political and economic reforms, particularly since President Shavkat Mirziyoyev took office in 2016. The country is rich in natural resources, including gold, natural gas, and cotton, which form the backbone of its economy.

    Recent developments in Uzbekistan include ongoing economic liberalisation efforts, with the government working to attract foreign investment and modernise key industries. The country has also been making strides in improving regional cooperation, particularly with its Central Asian neighbours and major powers like Russia and China. Human rights organisations continue to monitor the progress of democratic reforms and civil liberties in the country.

    Uzbekistan's rich cultural heritage, dating back to the Silk Road era, continues to draw international attention. Cities like Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva attract tourists with their stunning Islamic architecture and historical sites. The government has been investing in tourism infrastructure to boost this sector of the economy. Traditional Uzbek arts, crafts, and cuisine are also gaining recognition on the global stage.

    The country faces several challenges, including water scarcity, the environmental impact of the Aral Sea disaster, and the need to diversify its economy away from commodity exports. Uzbekistan is also working to balance its relationships with major powers while maintaining its sovereignty and pursuing an independent foreign policy.

    Our NewsNow feed on Uzbekistan provides up-to-date coverage from reliable sources, ensuring you stay informed about the latest political, economic, and social developments in this strategically important Central Asian nation. Whether you're a policymaker, investor, or simply interested in the region, our comprehensive coverage keeps you abreast of all significant news from Uzbekistan.
