Uzbekistan will host the next EU-Central Asia Economic and Investors’ Forums in November, signaling growing momentum in economic cooperation between the European Union and the region. The announcement was made by Toivo Klaar, Head of the EU Delegation to Uzbekistan, during celebrations marking Europe Day in Tashkent.
Ambassador Klaar emphasized that the forum will serve as a platform to explore new business opportunities and deepen economic ties.
He also revealed that President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev is expected to visit Brussels later this year to sign the Enhanced Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (EPCA), calling the upcoming visit “historic.” Klaar noted, “This historic visit will open a new chapter as we will deepen, diversify, and modernize EU-Uzbek relations across multiple dimensions.”
In addition to economic cooperation, Klaar highlighted plans for the next Human Rights Dialogue, underlining the EU's commitment to continued engagement on key governance and rights issues.
“We will naturally also continue to build on the achievements of the previous months,” he added, reinforcing the EU’s long-term strategy of partnership with Uzbekistan.
