Vučić said that under Mirziyoyev’s leadership, Uzbekistan had reached unprecedented heights.

“We admire your achievements and want to work and cooperate with your beautiful country,” Vučić said.

He also said that he learns a great deal from Mirziyoyev every time they meet.

“Dear friend, as you can see, I have no problem saying this publicly, and I believe that we can further strengthen our cooperation in all areas of social life. In Serbia, we follow with great enthusiasm the results Uzbekistan has achieved under your leadership. They are simply unprecedented. We admire them and want to work together; we want to cooperate with your beautiful country,” Vučić said.

He expressed hope that the two countries would continue to develop their strong relations.

“We have identified several areas of importance, and I am very pleased about that. First and foremost, we should sign a free trade agreement as soon as possible, make a decision as soon as possible on establishing a direct Belgrade–Tashkent air route, and develop industrial cooperation with a focus on the textile sector, as well as agriculture, advanced technologies, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and cooperation in transport connectivity, logistics and the defense industry,” Vučić said.
