DUBAI / WAM
Joint task forces comprising representatives of the governments of the UAE and Uzbekistan held a four-day series of meetings and workshops to discuss 17 areas of cooperation in modernising government work.
The workshops’ agenda falls within the framework of an official visit of a high-level Uzbek government delegation to the UAE, aimed at activating a strategic partnership between the two countries through the exchange of knowledge and experience in government work.
