Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — During the official visit of the Karelia delegation to Uzbekistan, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the Government of the Republic of Karelia and the Andijan Region.

The signing took place in the presence of Karelia’s head, Artur Parfenchikov, who emphasized the importance of this step for further developing cooperation between the regions.

The memorandum was signed by Dmitry Rodionov, Deputy Prime Minister of the Karelia Government, and Ilkhomjon Sabirov, Deputy Khokim of the Andijan Region. The document aims to establish mutually beneficial ties in the areas of industrial production, education, culture, and tourism.

The parties plan to actively develop cooperation in areas of mutual interest and stimulate interaction between the business communities and organizations registered in both countries. This will include conducting consultations, seminars, conferences, and other joint events.
