    Bloomberg: Uzbekistan's diplomatic approach to stability and growth

    27 September, 09:11 347

    Uzbekistan, a nation with ambitious plans to double its GDP by 2030, finds itself maneuvering through the intricate web of international relations in today's fragmented global economy. To achieve this significant economic growth, Uzbekistan must deftly balance the interests of major global powers, including the United States, Russia, and China. Deputy Prime Minister Jamshid Khodjaev recently shed light on this diplomatic tightrope during an interview with Bloomberg on the sidelines of the recent US-Uzbekistan business conference in Washington.

    Diversification as the Key Strategy

    Khodjaev underlined the paramount importance of diversifying Uzbekistan's foreign relations, stating, "Today, the geopolitical situation shows that you cannot rely solely on one country because it's not secure. Every country is looking for diversification." Uzbekistan's strategy involves maintaining robust ties with multiple nations to ensure stability in an unpredictable world.

    The China Connection

    China emerges as a significant trade and investment partner for Uzbekistan, particularly in renewable energy and green technology. Khodjaev acknowledged this partnership, highlighting China's assertive stance in these sectors and its eagerness to collaborate.

    He stated, "China is one of our biggest trade and investment partners. We are not hiding that because they are very aggressive on renewables and green energy. They have good technology, big companies, and they are keen to work with us."

    The Enduring Russian Relationship

    Despite the burgeoning ties with China, Russia continues to be a vital trading partner for Uzbekistan. Historical connections and the presence of Uzbekistani workers in Russia contribute to the enduring strength of this relationship. Khodjaev referred to these connections as a "good opportunity" and revealed efforts to diversify Uzbekistan's European market engagements.

    Infrastructure and Beyond

    China's involvement extends beyond renewable energy to infrastructure development in Uzbekistan. Khodjaev affirmed that this collaboration will persist. Simultaneously, Uzbekistan seeks investment from the United States, particularly in the emerging high-tech sector, where US companies possess a competitive advantage. Khodjaev stressed that Uzbekistan aims to provide a level playing field for all investors, with the best options gaining preference.

    Tackling Challenges

    One significant challenge that has arisen in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is preventing the transshipment of prohibited goods from the US and Europe to Russia. Uzbekistan has actively cooperated with the US Treasury to halt the flow of such goods across its borders.

    Khodjaev underscored the country's commitment to diversify investments in sensitive sectors such as energy and food supply. In other areas like infrastructure, Uzbekistan prioritizes decisions that benefit its citizens.

    He acknowledged the limitations of Uzbekistan's resources, stating, "We are not so wealthy as to dictate who's going to invest where."

    A Diplomatic Approach to Stability

    In a world marked by geopolitical complexities and economic uncertainties, Uzbekistan's diplomatic approach reflects its unwavering commitment to fostering stability, achieving economic growth, and ensuring diversification while maintaining essential relationships with key global players.

    Key Takeaways:

    - Uzbekistan aims to double its GDP by 2030, necessitating careful navigation of international relations.
    - Diversification of foreign relations is a central strategy to ensure stability.
    - China is a major partner in renewable energy and green technology.
    - Russia remains a vital trading partner due to historical ties.
    - Uzbekistan welcomes US investment in high-tech sectors.
    - Challenges include preventing the transshipment of prohibited goods.
    - Uzbekistan seeks to diversify investments in critical sectors.
    - The nation's diplomatic approach prioritizes stability and growth.
