Opening the meeting, the President of Uzbekistan noted with deep satisfaction the growing dynamics in the bilateral relations of strategic partnership and alliance.

Sergey Lavrov thanked the head of our state for the warm welcome and conveyed sincere greetings from President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. The decisive role of the two leaders in securing the current level of bilateral interaction was stressed in particular.
The meeting served to discuss pressing issues in Uzbek-Russian relations and swap views on regional and international affairs.
