Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Users in Uzbekistan have reported issues with the video hosting platform YouTube, particularly noting slow video loading times.

However, Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Digital Technologies has denied any problems with accessing YouTube in the country.

Users have specifically complained about the slow performance of the desktop version of the platform.

The ministry’s press service assured that YouTube is operating normally, and any possible slowdown of the service in Russia does not impact its performance in Uzbekistan.

The ministry emphasized that if YouTube experiences slowdowns in one country, it does not necessarily indicate similar problems in another, as the platform is not tied to any specific region.
