Extremely important and joyful news is coming from Washington for Uzbek diplomacy and economy. During official hearings held in the House Foreign Affairs Committee of the US Congress, a statement was made that would bring economic relations with the Central Asian region, particularly Uzbekistan, to a new level. Secretary of State Marco Rubio officially confirmed that the Trump administration fully supports the initiative to completely repeal the outdated "Jackson-Vanik Amendment," which has negatively affected mutual trade turnover for many years. This means a direct and broad opening to the American market for the countries of our region.

The head of the US foreign policy agency separately noted that the removal of these restrictions is extremely beneficial for bilateral relations. "We consider this decision a very useful and necessary step towards strengthening mutual cooperation," emphasized Marco Rubio. The repeal of this amendment will break down artificial barriers that have stood in the way of economic relations for years and will serve to sharply increase the volume of trade across the ocean.
