Diplomatic relations between the Republic of Uzbekistan and the Republic of Serbia were established on January 18, 1995, following Belgrade’s recognition of Uzbekistan’s independence in late 1991. This laid the groundwork for a gradual development of political dialogue which, despite the geographical distance between the two nations, has been built upon mutual respect, support for sovereignty, and the principle of non-interference in internal affairs.

In recent years, there has been a significant enhancement in the relations between Uzbekistan and Qatar. In particular, in 2024, relations between the two countries were elevated to the level of strategic partnership.

As a result of negotiations held in the city of Tashkent, President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev and President of the Republic of Finland Alexander Stubb signed a Joint declaration.

Talks between the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev, and the President of the Republic of Finland Alexander Stubb, with the participation of official delegations, took place at the “Kuksaroy” residence.
