Uzbekistan and Georgia Forge Strategic Partnership in Landmark Agreement
Following high-level negotiations between the President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev and the Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Kobakhidze the two nations have signed a Declaration on the establishment of strategic partnership relations.
The historic signing was accompanied by the exchange of a comprehensive package of bilateral agreements and memorandums in the presence of both delegations. These newly established frameworks cover a vast array of cooperative sectors and aim to significantly deepen the diplomatic and economic ties between Tashkent and Tbilisi.
Key areas of bilateral cooperation
The two leaders formalised several critical agreements designed to streamline administrative processes, boost technological infrastructure and foster mutual growth. A primary area of cooperation includes enhanced collaboration and direct administrative assistance in customs affairs.
Furthermore the two states committed to joint development efforts in information and communication technologies alongside focused partnerships spanning professional and higher education, scientific research and innovation.
To ensure the long-term success of this renewed relationship both governments approved two specific timelines for future collaboration. A general cooperation programme between the governments of Uzbekistan and Georgia was officially approved for the 2026–2027 period. Additionally a dedicated programme of interaction between the respective ministries of culture was established to run from 2027 through to 2030.
Broad sector memorandums
The delegations also concluded a wide variety of memorandums of cooperation across multiple vital sectors of the economy and public life. These newly signed documents cover economics and finance, the implementation of the E-Permit electronic permit exchange system, agriculture, environmental protection, healthcare, radiation protection, nuclear safety, labour migration and tourism.
To round off the extensive diplomatic engagements a specialised memorandum of cooperation was signed between the Bureau of Compulsory Enforcement under the Prosecutor General’s Office of Uzbekistan and its equivalent department under the Ministry of Justice of Georgia.
