At this meeting, compatriots were first informed about the ongoing reforms in Uzbekistan in terms of ensuring human rights, in particular, about the activities of the ombudsman institution, its legal framework and powers.

During the meeting, our compatriots raised such issues as education, medical care, citizenship, and the organization of language courses. At the meeting, it was emphasized that assistance would be provided to citizens, and all these issues would be considered by the Authorized Person of the Oliy Majlis for Human Rights (Ombudsman) and the Embassy of Uzbekistan in Turkey.
