TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, September 19. This week
in Geneva, the Uzbekistan delegation, led by Head of Presidential
Administration Saida Mirziyoyeva, marked another concrete step on
its path toward WTO membership, Azizbek Uranov, a representative of
the President of Uzbekistan on WTO, wrote on his social media
account, Trend

“Uzbekistan signed bilateral protocols on market access with
Argentina, Australia, and Honduras — a clear signal of growing
support and partnership for Uzbekistan’s integration into the
multilateral trading system,” Uranov noted.

He added: “Moreover, we reached principal agreements with two
more WTO members. These agreements not only advance our accession
talks but also create new channels for economic cooperation,
diversification of trade, and stronger business ties with partners
across different regions of the world.”

With each protocol, Uzbekistan is moving closer to full WTO
membership — a milestone expected to open fresh opportunities for
the national economy, the region, and trading partners worldwide.
At present, agreements have been concluded with 29 countries,
negotiations are finalized with two more members, and only three
bilateral talks remain before the process is complete.
