“Today's meeting is taking place at a time of profound transformations unfolding within international relations. We are experiencing critical moments characterized by unprecedented challenges and uncertainties. Conflicts, economic turmoil, technological disruptions and hybrid threats are making the international environment increasingly complicated. The global architecture of international security and economic cooperation is in danger of disintegration,” said Abdulla Aripov, Uzbek Prime Minister, as he addressed the meeting of the Heads of Government/Vice President of the Member States of Organization of Turkic States (OTS) held in Baku on April 2.

"The spirit of regional organizations based on trust, historical proximity and long-term common interests is being resolutely preserved. In such circumstances, it is extremely important to combine efforts within the Organization of Turkic States. Simultaneously, creating favorable conditions for improving the living standards and well-being of our peoples should remain among our top priorities," the Prime Minister of Uzbekistan added.
