World Affairs STL & the International Relations Council of Kansas City welcomed the Uzbekistan Ambassador, Javlon Vakhabov, for a virtual presentation on Zoom. Uzbekistan’s economy is expanding into new industries and is improving its relationship with neighboring countries. These changes present unique opportunities for Missouri to become an important economic partner to a rapidly modernizing Uzbekistan.
The Ambassador discussed topics including U.S.-Uzbekistan relations, COVID-19 in Uzbekistan, and recent economic developments. It was quite an engaging conversation!
World Affairs Council of St. Louis Executive Committee member, Dr. Joel Glassman, moderated the discussion and audience questions. The discussion centered around US-Uzbekistan relations, the COVID-19 situation in Uzbekistan, and recent economic developments in Uzbekistan.
