AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Tax & Business: Uzbekistan’s Tax Committee reviewed 82 entrepreneur appeals over UZS 375.1bn in penalties from Jan–Apr 2026, upholding regional decisions in 71 cases (UZS 342.2bn) while granting partial relief to four firms (about UZS 600m). Public Finance: State debt climbed to $47bn by end-Q1 2026, up $4.4bn year-on-year, with most growth tied to external borrowing used largely to cover the budget deficit and fuel-energy needs. Energy Transition: Battery storage capacity reached 1,545 MW, helping the grid cover about one-eighth of peak evening demand as renewables expand. Demographics: UNICEF projects Uzbekistan’s population will top 52m by 2050, driven by births outpacing deaths, with a rising share of older residents. Humanitarian Return: Uzbekistan reintegrated 530+ citizens returned from conflict zones via the Mehr operations, with about 75% being children now back in schools. Environment & Risk: Uzhydromet warns of heavy rain (June 2–5) in mountainous areas that could trigger mudslides and flash floods across multiple regions. Culture & State Honors: President Mirziyoyev awarded state honors to 167 cultural figures, including 24 posthumous awards, highlighting arts as a driver of national standing. World Cup Link: Transfermarkt values Uzbekistan’s World Cup squad at €78.73m and ranks the team 35th among participants. Transport & Connectivity: FLYONE Asia launched new Tashkent–Baku and Tashkent–Ganja routes, boosting Central Asia–South Caucasus travel.
