“Our Turkish brothers are working shoulder to shoulder with us during the construction process of the new Uzbekistan. We evaluate our relations with Turkey based on the law of brotherhood,” Uzbekistan’s Ambassador to Ankara Alisher Azamhocayev said, expressing approval of the relations between the two countries on Thursday.
Turkey and Uzbekistan will mark the 30th anniversary of their diplomatic relationship on Friday.
Emphasizing that diplomatic relations started between the two countries on March 4, 1992, Azamhocayev said: “As a matter of fact, the ties between our brotherly people go back much further. Therefore, we do not limit our relations to 30 years, we think that they date back to many centuries … We consider our relations with Turkey based on brotherly law. Because Konya is as valuable to us as Bukhara, we appreciate Bursa as much as our Khiva, we love Ankara as much as Tashkent, and we appraise Istanbul like Samarkand.”
