Uzbekistan has taken strides to fortify its collaboration with the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Parliamentary Assembly, the Senate of the Oliy Majlis reported. First Deputy Chairman of the Senate, Sodyq Safaev, convened a meeting with a delegation led by Farah Karimi, the special representative of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly for Central Asia and Mongolia.
The meeting underscored the burgeoning importance of parliamentary diplomacy in shaping international relations. Both parties acknowledged the pivotal role of bilateral and multilateral parliamentary dialogues in fostering mutual understanding and trust on the global stage. Emphasizing this sentiment, discussions revolved around channeling concerted efforts towards resolving regional and global challenges.
In recent years, Uzbekistan has embarked on political and economic reforms. Leveraging an updated foreign policy stance, the quality of Uzbekistan's collaboration with the OSCE and its affiliated institutions has ascended to unprecedented heights.
An exchange of perspectives ensued regarding cooperation in environmental preservation, ecology, and the judicious utilization of water resources. Given the interconnectedness of Central Asia's ecology and water reservoirs, a regional approach to tackling pertinent issues garnered emphasis.
The OSCE PA delegates lauded the joint initiative by Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan to champion a resolution within the Assembly on the "Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals in Central Asia". The resolution entails concrete recommendations aimed at harnessing the expertise of international bodies to address prevailing challenges in the region.
Delving into Uzbekistan's developmental trajectory, the OSCE PA delegation gained insights into the progress of the nation's Development Strategy, initiatives to bolster representative governance across all echelons, and strategies for addressing environmental concerns and optimizing water resource management.
