Uzbekistan and Mongolia continue to strengthen their strategic partnership, moving from the basic diplomatic relations established in 1992 to broader cooperation in the economy, transport, and culture. Important events include high-level visits and the signing of agreements in areas such as mining, agriculture, and logistics, as well as the introduction of a visa-free regime. Key areas of cooperation include strengthening political ties with the opening of the Mongolian embassy in Tashkent and economic initiatives aimed at stimulating trade and developing transport infrastructure.
