It should be noted that, thanks to the political will of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, great attention is being paid to establishing equal, mutually respectful, and trustworthy good-neighborly relations with various countries around the world. In this regard, in particular, the elevation of activities within the SCO to a new stage has become an essential factor in strengthening Uzbekistan’s position on the international stage.

Representatives of the media, especially journalists and photo correspondents of Uzbekistan, are actively participating in the implementation of joint programs. They not only cover official SCO meetings, summits, and forums, but also provide broad and in-depth analytical coverage of the economic relations of the member states of this prestigious organization.

It should be noted that photography is considered the seal of an era. The media materials covering the cooperation between Uzbekistan and China within the framework of the SCO are significant in that they will remain in history and serve as an invaluable source for years and generations to come.
