TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, August 29. According to the Pharmaceutical Industry Development Agency, Uzbekistan plans to regularly supply protein and vitamin complexes to Afghanistan for an average amount of about $1 million per year, Trend reports.
This agreement was signed during the ongoing negotiations held by the Uzbek delegation in Afghanistan.
In addition, taking into account the fact that there is only one dental clinic in Kabul, the parties agreed on the issues of the professional development of Afghan medical specialists in this field and their training in short-term courses.
Experts from the agency also held constructive dialogues with the Director of the Pharmaceutical Service of Afghanistan’s Ministry of Health, Hamid Formuli, on the conclusion of a contract for the supply of Uzbek-made medicines to the Ibn-Sina Medical Clinic. This Afghan company is one of the leading distributors of medicines in the country.
In general, at the meeting with the Chairman of the National Association of Afghanistan "Quality Control of Food and Medicines", Umar discussed issues regarding the supply of pharmaceutical products manufactured in Uzbekistan to the Afghan market. In particular, a draft agreement on the introduction of a simplified system of state registration is being considered, which will speed up this process by 25 days.
