"We highly appreciate the coordinated activities of Egypt, Qatar and Turkey, which have played a significant role in this important process, which creates the prerequisites for an early end to violence, relief of the humanitarian crisis and the resumption of political dialogue.

Uzbekistan has consistently advocated for a lasting and just peace in the Middle East based on the norms of international law and UN Security Council resolutions.

We are convinced that the ceasefire should not be a temporary measure, but a step towards a long-term political settlement that guarantees security, sustainable coexistence and the restoration of trust between the parties.

The Republic of Uzbekistan confirms its readiness to continue to provide constructive assistance to international efforts aimed at achieving peace, stability and humanitarian relief in the Middle East region," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan said in a statement.
