Uzbekistan will start cooperating with its diaspora in the United States
The Republic will expand its network of consulates to strengthen its soft power.
On November 12, Shavkat Mirziyoyev issued a decree on the establishment of the American-Uzbek Business and Investment Council.
One of the main tasks was to develop a model for effective interaction with Uzbek diasporas living in all US states. To strengthen the investment and trade bloc and expand business cooperation, successfully implement the tasks and projects of the Council, as well as to assist in the work of the Advisor-Ambassador of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan, the following were obliged:
- together with the Ministry of Investments, Industry and Trade, within three weeks, submit a proposal to increase the staff of the Embassy of Uzbekistan in the USA;
- within a month, work out the issue of opening additional consulates in the territory of the USA, including employees and specialists working with key hubs of US industries to ensure geographical coverage, as well as taking into account the concentration of large diasporas of compatriots (the cities of Philadelphia, Chicago, Orlando, and Seattle).
Earlier, it was reported that Trump would appoint an ambassador for investments and trade with Uzbekistan. The countries will create a joint business council to promote projects.
We also remind you that Uzbekistan will allow capital to be freely exported to the US. The Republic will look for opportunities to invest in the States.
