According to the press service of the Head of State, the parties review topical matters concerning the further advancement of multifaceted cooperation between the two nations.
At the beginning of the meeting, Shavkat Mirziyoyev expresses gratitude to Aleksandar Vucic for the warm reception and hospitality, emphasizing that this first visit to Belgrade will enter history as the commencement of a new stage in relations between the two countries.
The intensification of political dialogue, interparliamentary ties, trade and economic collaboration, as well as business and humanitarian exchanges, receives profound satisfaction. The sides highlight that opening diplomatic representations and establishing an interparliamentary forum will facilitate the deepening of bilateral relations.
Trade, economic, and investment engagement becomes a solid foundation of cooperation. A series of economic events involving high level delegations proceeds successfully from the start of the year.
On 7 September, the first session of the Intergovernmental Commission convenes. On 8 September, a joint business forum takes place, drawing representatives from leading corporations of both states.
Special attention focuses on expanding bilateral trade, primarily through increasing deliveries of high demand goods. In this connection, the sides underline the importance of elaborating and adopting a Free Trade Agreement, setting up cooperation in standardisation, and organizing reciprocal exhibitions.
It is also noted that next year Uzbekistan will participate actively in the EXPO 2027 international exhibition in Belgrade with a national pavilion.
The parties consider issues of implementing new joint projects across priority fields such as transport and logistics, light and food industries, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and the digital economy. The participants point out the substantial potential of industrial cooperation in manufacturing automotive components, machinery, electrical equipment, and electronics.
To ensure high quality implementation of all understandings, the sides adopt a joint Action Plan for the development of industrial partnership for 2026 to 2028.
The importance of advancing interregional cooperation is highlighted. The leaders welcome establishing direct links between the Samarkand region and Vojvodina, as well as between the cities of Samarkand and Novi Sad.
In the humanitarian domain, initiatives are put forward to expand partnerships in education, culture, sport, and tourism. The parties reach an agreement to host Culture Days, joint film, theatre, and music festivals, and advance direct contacts between sports federations.
Dedicated attention is paid to organised labour migration. The strong interest of the Serbian side in establishing systematic cooperation in this field is acknowledged. The sides welcome the adoption of an agreement on mobility and labour migration during the visit.
A comprehensive exchange of views also takes place regarding regional and international agendas, including reciprocal support across multilateral platforms.
To ensure the timely and high quality execution of reached understandings, adopted resolutions, and signed agreements, a comprehensive roadmap will be adopted.
