US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken held a press conference on March 1 with the participation of foreign and local media.
The United States, in cooperation with the Uzbek government, began training 15,000 English teachers and is planning to provide 10,000 schools with English language textbooks.
"Today, I participated in a lesson where young Uzbek students were learning English. It's not just about learning English, it's about preparing the younger generation of Uzbeks to compete for jobs, connecting with English speakers across the region, and opening doors to academic leadership exchange programs in the United States," - Blinken said.
