Shavkat Mirziyoyev: ‘Karakalpaks Have a Clear Conscience’

President Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the Amudaryo makhalla (local neighborhood community area) in Nukus.

More than 6 thousand people live here. The residents work in two industrial enterprises, and in more than 20 trade and service facilities.

The internal roads, gas pipelines and electricity networks have been repaired in the makhalla recently. The territory of the makhalla has been landscaped. The facades of the school and preschool education institutions have been renovated, as well as the conditions thereof have been improved.

A sincere conversation took place with the local leaders and elders in the school yard of the makhalla.

«It turns out that I visited Karakalpakstan most often, compared to other regions. We have learned that if we descend down, if we act together, we can achieve changes. The great transformations have taken place in Karakalpakstan in recent years. The supply of potable water has been improved. The coverage of preschool education has increased. A great number of houses were built. I am very glad to see that such changes have taken place in your makhalla», Shavkat Mirziyoyev has said.

The elders has said that the July events were a big mistake, some young people lost their way. Having noted, the Karakalpaks and Uzbeks have closely connected with strong ties for centuries, as well as the elders made dua with the wishes of peace and tranquility to our people.

«Certainly, we all took these events with great concern. They did not happen by the will of Karakalpakstan people. The Karakalpaks have a clear conscience. Our people are united. May there be no more such troubles. May there always be peace in our country, and may our unity be eternal», the President said.

Thereupon, the visit of the President to Karakalpakstan has come to an end and he returned to Tashkent.
