BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 23. Kyrgyzstan proposes
creating a joint interagency working group with Uzbekistan to
develop an agro-industrial cooperation program until 2030.
This was reported by the Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan.
This was stated by Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of the
Kyrgyz Republic – Head of the Presidential Administration of the
Kyrgyz Republic Adylbek Kasymaliev during the 12th meeting of the
Joint Kyrgyz-Uzbek Intergovernmental Commission on Bilateral
Cooperation.
"We propose paying special attention to industrial cooperation
and joint industrial projects. We support the creation of joint
industrial parks and logistics complexes, as well as the
development of mechanisms for state support of such projects. In
addition, we advocate the creation of a joint interagency working
group to develop a program of agro-industrial cooperation until
2030," the head of the Cabinet said.
The sides also noted the need to intensify the activities of the
Kyrgyz-Uzbek Development Fund, which successfully implements
mutually beneficial projects, and to increase its authorized
capital in accordance with the agreements reached.
Meanwhile, Kyrgyzstan’s proposal to develop an agro-industrial
cooperation program with Uzbekistan until 2030 highlights the
growing focus on practical sectoral cooperation between the two
countries. Agriculture and food production remain key areas where
joint projects could strengthen supply chains, increase production
capacity, and improve regional trade.
The emphasis on industrial parks, logistics complexes, and state
support mechanisms indicates an intention to move bilateral
cooperation beyond traditional trade toward joint production and
investment projects. Strengthening the role of the Kyrgyz-Uzbek
Development Fund could provide additional financial support for
these initiatives and contribute to deeper economic integration
between the two neighboring countries.
