Sharp turn in the currency market: the dollar and the euro fell

The Central Bank of the Republic of Uzbekistan has officially announced new exchange rates of foreign currencies against the Uzbek soum starting from June 5, 2025. According to it, a significant decrease was observed, especially in the rates of the US dollar and the euro.

According to the Central Bank, starting today, the value of one US dollar has decreased by 25.54 soums, amounting to 12,831.81 soums. Such a sharp change in the dollar exchange rate, which has been constantly increasing over the past three days, was unexpected even for market observers.

At the same time, the euro has also fallen significantly. In one day, its price has decreased by 66.36 soums, and is now being sold at 14,606.45 soums. It is said that this decrease may be associated with a change in demand for the European currency in Uzbekistan.

However, the price of the Russian ruble has recorded a slight increase. In particular, the ruble has appreciated by 0.30 soums, amounting to 163.75 soums at the new rate. Experts say that the development of trade and economic relations with Russia was the reason for this growth.
