At the capital's airport, the Prosecutor General of Russia was met by Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation Alexey Yerkhov and Prosecutor General of the Republic of Uzbekistan Nigmatilla Yuldashev.
The head of the Russian supervisory authority began his visit by laying a wreath at the "Ode to Resilience" monument at the Victory Park memorial complex, which is dedicated to Zulfiya Zakirova – the mother of five sons who perished at the front during the Great Patriotic War. At the "Leningrad Monument," which opened on the grounds of the complex in September 2025, Aleksandr Gutsan honored the memory of the victims of the siege of Leningrad and also met with siege survivors – veterans living in Tashkent.

The key event of the Prosecutor General of Russia's visit was a meeting of the heads of the supervisory authorities of the two countries.
During their meeting in Tashkent, Aleksandr Gutsan welcomed Nigmatilla Yuldashev and emphasized that the Presidents of Russia and Uzbekistan have set a course for the further development of a mutually beneficial trade and economic partnership, the stability and security of which largely depend on the implementation of joint law enforcement efforts.
The Prosecutor General of Russia specifically noted the work of the interagency working group on migration issues, which was established last year and is making a significant contribution to protecting the rights of citizens of both countries.
"I consider the agreements we have reached to jointly counter the spread of extremist and terrorist ideology in our countries, and to develop parameters for cooperation to quickly block access to illegal content that incites ethnic hatred and enmity, to be particularly important," Aleksandr Gutsan said.
In order to expand the treaty framework for cooperation between the two countries, the Prosecutor General of Russia proposed signing an agreement on the transfer of persons sentenced to imprisonment, which would allow citizens of Russia and Uzbekistan to serve their criminal sentences in their own countries.
The head of the Russian supervisory authority suggested that Nigmatilla Yuldashev meet with him on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Aleksandr Gutsan assured his colleague that the Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation welcomes constructive cooperation on any issues of mutual interest.
Following the meeting, a Cooperation Program for the supervisory authorities of the two countries for 2027–2028 was signed in order to continue the exchange of best practices.
"I am convinced that the regular holding of the expert meetings provided for by the Program will strengthen professional ties and will allow us to jointly develop effective responses to the new threats that are emerging in our countries," Aleksandr Gutsan noted in conclusion.

During the visit, the Prosecutor General of Russia toured the museum of the history of the Prosecutor's Office of Uzbekistan and also visited the Law Enforcement Academy of the Prosecutor General's Office of Uzbekistan. At a meeting with students attending lecture sessions, the head of the Russian supervisory authority drew attention to the long-standing, stable professional ties between the prosecutors' offices of Russia and Uzbekistan.
"We are united by a desire to counter the most dangerous challenges, including those of a cross-border nature," said Aleksandr Gutsan. "Mechanisms for the regular exchange of experience, best practices of prosecutorial activity, departmental and scientific publications, as well as the holding of expert meetings and seminars, help us jointly increase the effectiveness of this work."
For reference: The Prosecutor General's Office of Russia actively interacts with its Uzbek counterparts. Regular meetings at the leadership level of the Prosecutor General's Offices of Russia and Uzbekistan are of paramount significance for the development of stable relations. The Agreement on Cooperation between the supervisory authorities of the two countries has been in force since 2014. Three joint Cooperation Programs (for 2019–2020, 2021–2023 and 2024–2025) have been implemented so far. In 2021, a Memorandum on Cooperation between the prosecutors' offices of the two countries in the scientific and educational spheres was signed. In 2022, a Memorandum of Understanding and Cooperation was signed by the University of the Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation and the Academy of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Republic of Uzbekistan. In 2025, a Russian-Uzbek interagency working group was established to study the situation in the migration sphere.
