Uzbekistan and Qatar agree to expand parliamentary dialogue and exchange experience
During an online meeting on November 6, the visit of a Qatari parliamentary delegation to Uzbekistan was discussed, and annual meetings between representatives of the two parliaments were endorsed.
The meeting on November 6 was held remotely with the assistance of the Embassy of Uzbekistan in Doha. The main topics included preparations for the official visit of a Qatari parliamentary delegation and new areas of cooperation.
Qatar was represented by Ahmad Al-Hitmi, a member of the Shura Council and Chairman of the Qatar-Asia Parliamentary Friendship Group. The Uzbek side was represented by Abdulhakim Eshmuratov, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Judicial, Legal Issues, and Anti-Corruption, and Nodir Jumaev, Chairman of the Legislative Chamber Committee on Science, Education, Culture, Sports, and Youth.
The Uzbek side proposed holding contacts between representatives of the two countries' parliaments at least once a year—every November, either remotely or in person. Qatari parliamentarians supported this initiative.
Additionally, Qatar advocated for closer cooperation in the legislative sphere, including the exchange of experience in drafting bills. Participants also discussed cultural and humanitarian ties, tourism, sports, science, and education, as well as mutual support on international parliamentary platforms.
