President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev and President of Boeing Global Brendan Nelson held a meeting in New York and took a new step in the strategic partnership between the two countries. This event will further strengthen Uzbekistan's cooperation with Boeing, one of the world's largest manufacturers of aviation and space equipment.
Boeing's cooperation with Uzbekistan in recent years has a long history. Currently, Uzbekistan is an important and strategic partner of this company. President Mirziyoyev emphasized the effectiveness of this cooperation and its continuation in the right direction. On the basis of the existing contract, an agreement was signed between the Uzbek airline "Uzbekistan Airways" and Boeing on the supply of new aircraft. The specific goal of this agreement is to improve the country's air transport system and provide it with modern aircraft.
Accordingly, within the framework of the new contract, Uzbekistan Airways approved the purchase of 22 787 Dreamliner aircraft from Boeing for a huge investment of $8 billion. This important agreement is of great economic importance for Uzbekistan, as it will not only contribute to the development of the country's transportation sector, but will also create more than 35,000 jobs in the United States.
During Mirziyoyev's visit, US President Donald Trump also praised the agreement and wrote on his page: "At the beginning of this month, I spoke with the President of Uzbekistan, the esteemed Shavkat Mirziyoyev. Today I congratulate President Mirziyoyev on the signing of a huge deal with Boeing! Uzbekistan Airways will purchase 22 787 Dreamliner aircraft for more than $8 billion. This will create more than 35,000 jobs in the United States. President Mirziyoyev is a man of his word, and we will continue to work together on many other issues! Thank you for your attention to this issue." Trump emphasized that this agreement will play an important role in further strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries.
This meeting, which focuses on cooperation between Mirziyoyev and Trump, will serve to further strengthen Uzbekistan's position in the global economic arena and strengthen the country's relations with international partners. Another important step in the development of Uzbekistan's aviation sector was also taken.
