Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — A briefing was held at the multimedia press center Sputnik Uzbekistan with the participation of Inna Svyatenko, Deputy Chairwoman of the Federation Council of the Russian Federation. During the meeting, she highlighted the high demand in Russia for agricultural products from Uzbekistan.

"Russian consumers trust the quality of products from Uzbekistan. If the packaging indicates the origin of the product, buyers consciously choose it, knowing about its excellent taste and naturalness. This is the result of Uzbekistan's favorable climate and the hard work of its farmers, who bring professionalism and dedication to their work," emphasized the Deputy Speaker.

Svyatenko also paid special attention to cooperation in the light industry: "Uzbek cotton is recognized as one of the best in the world. The Russian textile industry traditionally uses this raw material, which strengthens the mutually beneficial partnership. Products made from Uzbek cotton are deservedly popular in Russia."

Additionally, the Deputy Speaker highlighted the successful collaboration in the education sector: "Uzbek specialists who graduated from Russian universities make a significant contribution to the development of bilateral relations. This confirms the demand for joint educational programs."

The event once again demonstrated the dynamic nature of Russian-Uzbek cooperation in key sectors of the economy and social sphere.
