Turkish FM to arrive in Uzbekistan for official visit

Tashkent, Uzbekistan, July 9
By Demir Azizov- Trend:

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu will arrive in Tashkent for an official visit on July 10, the Uzbek Foreign Ministry reported.

A series of bilateral meetings and negotiations are planned during the visit of Davutoglu to Uzbekistan, in which the state and prospects of Uzbek-Turkish relations and topical issues of international and regional issues will be discussed, the report said.

Furthermore, it is expected that Uzbek President Islam Karimov will receive the Turkish FM.

At present, the relations between Uzbekistan and Turkey are regulated by more than 100 intergovernmental and interagency documents, the most important of which is the "Treaty of Eternal Friendship and Cooperation" signed in May 1996.

Trade and economic relations between the two countries are continuously evolving, though not in the fullest measure. In 2013, the trade turnover between the two countries increased by eight percent and made up about $1,250 billion.

Today, some 450 companies operate in Uzbekistan with Turkish investments operating in the textile, food and pharmaceutical industries as well as in the areas of hospitality, services, building materials, construction and production of plastic products.
