BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 21. A number of joint
projects implemented with the Uzbek side make an important
contribution to the further expansion of economic cooperation and
the creation of new development opportunities between our
countries, President Ilham Aliyev said in an interview with the Uzbekistan National News Agency
(UzA).
"In this regard, I would particularly note the establishment of
a pomegranate orchard called the “Garden of Friendship,” covering
an area of 100 hectares in the liberated Fuzuli district, as well
as cooperation in the production of Chevrolet and Isuzu brand
vehicles. I should also note that, as of July 13, 2026, a total of
10,720 Chevrolet cars and 275 Isuzu buses had been produced," the
head of state said.
He added that secondary school named after Mirzo Ulugbek, built
at the initiative of Uzbekistan and located in the city of Fuzuli,
is one of the brightest examples of cooperation in the field of
education and yet another manifestation of the brotherly relations
between our countries: "We express our sincere gratitude to the
people of Uzbekistan and personally to President Shavkat Mirziyoyev
for this noble initiative, as well as for the support provided for
restoration and construction efforts in our liberated
territories."
