“The victory of others is entrenched in our minds”. Mirziyoyev spoke about Amir Timur's commanding mastery

The study of the defensive heritage of Amir Temur will begin in Uzbekistan. This was stated by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev during a visit to Kashkadarya region.

“I try to read books whenever I have the opportunity.  That day, I had an hour free, so I read the story of the battle between Amir Temur and Tokhtamysh Khan.  I was wondering how our great commander won.  Tokhtamysh Khan didn't lose easily either, so, our great ancestor, Amir Temur's excellent military tactics, his courage and strategy worked in that battle.  I wrote it down for myself that Amir Timur utilized 7 tricks in combat», – President Mirziyoyev said about Sahibkiran’s (Arabic-‘Lord of the (Auspicious) Conjunction) military skills.

He went on to say that in the past, Uzbekistan had only studied the victories of other nations.

“Why don’t we study the history of our great ancestors? For many years, foreign history and the victories of others have been etched in our memory with admiration.  I’ve instructed my deputies to study the history of our ancestors first.
You, the people of Kashkadarya, should understand that such a great man is your direct ancestor, – Shavkat Mirziyoyev stated.
