As part of the “Europe\u2013Central Asia: Dialogue Without Borders” project, implemented by the International Charitable Foundation for Public Diplomacy in partnership with the Center for Geopolitical Studies “KONSTANTA R&D Group” with organizational and financial support from the International Renaissance Foundation, a series of five expert surveys was conducted covering all countries in the region\u2014the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan.<\/p>\n

A total of 83 respondents from Central Asian countries participated in the survey. A separate analytical section was devoted entirely to the Republic of Uzbekistan: 17 experts representing academia, think tanks, the economic sector, and the business community participated in this survey. This mix of respondents allows us to view the results as representative of Uzbekistan’s internal perspective on the prospects for interaction with Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The study results demonstrate a generally positive yet pragmatic perception of Ukraine as a partner capable of offering applied solutions in key economic sectors. Uzbekistan’s expert community notes significant potential for expanding cooperation, but emphasizes that the current level of interaction does not match this potential and requires systematic development. <\/p>\n

Experts primarily identify transport and logistics, digital technologies, industry and mechanical engineering, the financial sector, as well as healthcare and pharmaceuticals, as priority areas for cooperation. These areas are perceived as the most promising in terms of rapid economic impact and the formation of sustainable long-term ties.<\/p>\n

In the field of digital technologies, Ukraine is viewed as a source of engineering solutions, IT competencies, and human resources. Experts note the potential for integrating Ukrainian experience into the digitalization of Uzbekistan’s economy\u2014from software development to the creation of joint educational and technological platforms.<\/p>\n

Industrial and manufacturing sectors also figure prominently in their assessments. Ukraine is perceived as a partner with developed competencies in mechanical engineering, equipment manufacturing, and engineering solutions. This opens up opportunities for cooperation in modernizing production, localizing individual processes, and establishing joint ventures.<\/p>\n

The logistics dimension of cooperation is of significant interest. The Republic of Uzbekistan is viewed as a key transportation hub in Central Asia, while Ukraine is seen as an important link in the system of economic ties with European markets. Interaction within transport corridors has the potential to strengthen connectivity between the region and the European Union, creating new opportunities for trade and investment.<\/p>\n

At the same time, experts identify logistics as a key barrier. Among the main constraints are high transportation costs, limited route capacity, the complexity of multimodal solutions, and bureaucratic procedures. In this context, the development of alternative transport corridors is seen as a strategically necessary step, without which the scalability of cooperation will be limited.<\/p>\n

An additional factor enhancing the attractiveness of cooperation is Ukraine’s integration into the European Economic Area. This allows cooperation to be considered not only in a bilateral format but also in the broader context of access to European Union markets.<\/p>\n

In turn, the Republic of Uzbekistan is perceived as a dynamic economic hub in the region with high growth potential. Experts note the growing domestic market, improving investment climate, availability of labor resources, and a desire to diversify foreign economic relations. This forms the basis for a mutually beneficial model of cooperation, in which both sides complement each other.<\/p>\n

A separate set of assessments concerns Uzbekistan’s participation in the reconstruction of Ukraine. Experts view such participation as realistic and promising, primarily in applied sectors such as construction, logistics, supply of materials, and the implementation of infrastructure projects. Key conditions remain the existence of transparent rules, investment security guarantees, and access to international financing.<\/p>\n

Migration policy is also an important element of cooperation. Experts almost unanimously support the need to conclude bilateral agreements regulating labor mobility. This includes creating legal channels for employment, simplifying procedures, mutual recognition of qualifications, and ensuring the protection of workers’ rights. In this context, migration is viewed as a tool for economic integration and the formation of long-term ties between countries.<\/p>\n

     A 10-Year Strategic Vision<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

In the long term, the expert community of the Republic of Uzbekistan expects Ukraine’s role in Central Asia to gradually strengthen through economic and logistical development. Ukraine is viewed as a partner capable of providing access to technology, engineering solutions, and European markets.<\/p>\n

A key element of this role will be Ukraine’s ability to act as a link between Central Asia and the European Union. This involves not only transit, but also integration into production and logistics chains, the development of joint projects, and participation in transregional initiatives.<\/p>\n

At the same time, experts emphasize that Ukraine’s sustainable presence will be built through practical steps\u2014economic diplomacy, the development of business contacts, the launch of specific projects, and participation in logistics infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The role of the Republic of Uzbekistan over the next 10 years is assessed as significantly strengthened. Experts expect the country to strengthen its position as a key economic hub in Central Asia, expand its participation in international transport corridors, and enhance its function as a transit hub between Europe and Asia. Uzbekistan is also seen as one of the main entry points into the region for external partners. This means that a significant portion of economic and logistics initiatives, including those from Ukraine, will be implemented through the Uzbek route.<\/p>\n

Thus, a mutually complementary model is emerging: Uzbekistan is strengthening its role as a regional economic hub and transit platform, while Ukraine is cementing its position as a partner providing technological, production, and logistics integration with the European route.<\/p>\n

Overall, the study’s results confirm the high interest in deepening cooperation between Ukraine and the Republic of Uzbekistan. This process is based on applied economic developments, the development of which creates the preconditions for a long-term, stable, and mutually beneficial partnership.<\/p>\n
