Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Uzbekistan doubled export of agricultural goods and foodstuffs to Russia, the President of Russia Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday.
He said that Presidents of Uzbekistan and Russia agreed to continue efforts to encourage increased Uzbekistani exports of agricultural goods and foodstuffs to Russia.
“These exports more than doubled over the last year alone and come to 142,800 tonnes, so as to have an idea what this means in practical terms,” he said.
“This is in large part the result of joint efforts to implement the President of Uzbekistan’s initiative to establish a so-called ‘green corridor’ for quicker and unhindered supplies of agricultural goods across our borders. Russia’s decision to lower transport costs for transport of a number of goods of importance for the country has also been of help in this area,” Putin noted.
