The meeting discussed issues of further developing trade, economic and investment cooperation between Uzbekistan and the United States, as well as expanding the participation of US business circles in privatization processes in Uzbekistan.

Director of the State Assets Management Agency, Sohibjon Murodov, noted that Uzbek-US relations have reached a new level in recent years and provided information about the opportunities created for foreign investors in the country, mechanisms for protecting investor rights, and the openness of privatization processes.

During the meeting, proposals were put forward to widely promote state assets planned for privatization in Uzbekistan to US business circles and potential investors, to increase the interest of foreign investors in these assets, and to attract US companies to investment projects.
