President Islam Karimov congratulates Chinese President Hu Jintao

27.12.2011

His Excellency
Mr. Hu Jintao,
President of the People?s Republic of China

Your Excellency,

I sincerely thank You for the heartfelt congratulations and kind wishes on the twentieth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Republic of Uzbekistan and the People?s Republic of China.

In its aspiration for development and prosperity, Uzbekistan has from the very moment of attaining independence relied on the robust support from China, our close neighbor and trustworthy partner. We highly acknowledge the special significance attached by China?s leadership to a consistent and dynamic enhancement of longer-term relations with Uzbekistan on principles of equality, mutual respect and confidence.

An open and prolific political dialogue has been built between our two nations for the historically brief period across a whole range of bilateral and multilateral cooperation; a steadfast trend has been secured in the growth of volumes and diversification of trade stock-lists; growth in investments has been evident, primarily to high-tech industrial sectors defined by us as priority areas. Remarkable has been the expansion of cultural and humanitarian exchange, academic and technical interaction.

The Agreement on Partnership Relations of Friendship and Cooperation signed by us in 2005 has helped craft a solid normative backbone for a persistent and systematic building up of mutually rewarding Uzbek-Chinese ties amid new realities.

One of critical outcomes of Uzbek delegation?s state visit to China in April 2011 ? a symbolic event in the history of our relations ? has been the establishment of a committee on cooperation to have secured an institutional foundation for the eventful interstate dialogue and comprehensive partnership on even higher a layer.

We stay steadily supportive of Your balanced and reasonable foreign policy, the one China policy, measures to combat terrorism, extremism and separatism. Uzbekistan is interested in furthering its constructive interaction with China within the framework of the United Nations, Shanghai Cooperation Organization and other prominent international organizations and financial institutions.

I feel convinced that given the concurrence of vital interests, we will continue to work together toward consolidating the bonds of traditional friendship and add new tangible content to them for the good of our two countries and peoples.

Taking this delightful opportunity, I would like to greet You, esteemed Mr. Hu Jintao, on the New Year, wish a sound health and every success in Your activities, along with progress and wellbeing to the friendly people of China.

Sincerely,

Islam KARIMOV,
President of the Republic of Uzbekistan
