Trump invites Shavkat Mirziyoyev to G20 summit

US President Donald Trump held a telephone conversation with Uzbekistan’s President Shavkat Mirziyoyev and invited the Uzbek leader to attend the G20 summit as a guest. Trump announced this on December 24 on his Truth Social page.

“This morning, I had two excellent phone calls with the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, and the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. We discussed the importance of achieving peace in ongoing conflicts, as well as expanding trade and cooperation between our countries. Our relations with both nations are excellent.

Next year, the United States will host the G20 summit, and we will send invitations to both leaders to attend this very important event as guests. The summit will be held in the city of Miami,” Trump wrote.

It is worth noting that earlier reports stated that Donald Trump had also spoken by phone with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. During that conversation, the leaders exchanged views on the bilateral agenda and the current international situation, including the issue of Ukraine. Tokayev confirmed his readiness to fully implement the agreements reached during his visit to Washington in November this year.
