Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan to introduce full free trade regime

Tashkent, July 13 (SocialNews.XYZ) Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan plan to introduce a full free trade regime, according to the press service of the Uzbek government on Friday.

"To achieve this, it is essential to strengthen systematic work on replacing imports from third countries and transitioning to a full free trade regime," it noted, reports Xinhua news agency.

On July 11-12, a meeting of an intergovernmental joint commission on bilateral cooperation took place in Almaty, Kazakhstan, chaired by the prime ministers of both countries.
