A meeting occurred in Central Asia on April 23 that hasn t ever happened before.
The governor of Uzbekistan s eastern Ferghana Province met with the Tajik and Kyrgyz governors of the adjoining provinces for talks on economic cooperation.
Hosted in the city of Ferghana by Hayrullo Bozorov, the meeting was attended by the governor of Tajikistan s Sughd Province, Rajabboi Ahmadzoda, and the governor of Kyrgyzstan s Batken Province, Omurbek Suvanaliev.
Nearly 30 years after the three countries became independent, the meeting marked the first time the heads of the three neighboring provinces had ever gathered for such a meeting.
