The achievement of the current prospects and progress was also mentioned. In particular, after 2016, when our nation entered a new stage of development under the leadership of President Sh. M. Mirziyoev, it was emphasized that radical reforms were being carried out in all spheres and sectors and that processes of democratic renewal were underway.
