Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev signed a framework agreement with the Turkish side. It envisages military cooperation and other contacts on the subject of regional defense.

"Ratify the military framework agreement between the government of Uzbekistan and the government of the Republic of Turkey," the text of the decree reads.

According to the document, the two countries will continue cooperation in terms of military training, defense industry, cartography, anti-mine and other devices.

Earlier in November, the law was ratified by the country's parliament. Turkish President Erdogan signed the document back on March 29.
