Marco Rubio's visit to Uzbekistan: Central Asia tour — a harmony of diplomacy and business

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is heading to Uzbekistan, after which he will travel to India.

According to the schedule for October 17–22 announced by the State Department, he will visit Samarkand, followed by Mumbai and Jamnagar. On October 18, Reuters interpreted his arrival in Uzbekistan as a sign of the US paying greater attention to Central Asia.

This format connects the US with Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. It provides a common platform for countries with diverse national interests.

It is not just about diplomacy here, but also trade. The State Department announced that over two hundred business representatives are also being brought along — both political discussions and economic plans will be discussed here.

In conclusion, this visit by the US Secretary of State can be called a major step toward long-term cooperation.
