This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Energy. The document will reflect the transition to the production of electricity with low greenhouse gas emissions that negatively affect the environment. In early May, the country adopted the "Concept of providing the Republic of Uzbekistan with electric energy for 2020-2030", which was developed with the participation of the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank. The concept envisages the modernization of existing power plants, the creation of new types of power generation through renewable energy sources and nuclear power plants. These measures will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 10% by 2030 compared with 2010. Currently, on the basis of this document, the National Low-Carbon Energy Strategy of Uzbekistan is being developed, in the preparation of which experts from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development are participating. A strategy is necessary to solve the problem of the country’s energy supply, on the one hand, and to reduce the negative impact on the environment, on the other. “The strategy for the transition to low-carbon energy is being developed using the method of modeling the country’s energy system and possible future development scenarios.

  • Asia-Europe Connectivity Vision 2025
    Asia–Europe Connectivity Vision 2025 Challenges and Opportunities The Asia–Europe Meeting (ASEM) enters into its third decade with commitments for a renewed and deepened engagement between Asia and Europe. After 20 years, and with tremendous global and regional changes behind it, there is a consensus that ASEM must bring out a new road map of Asia–Europe connectivity and cooperation. It is commonly understood that improved connectivity and increased cooperation between Europe and Asia require plans that are both sustainable and that can be upscaled. Asia–Europe Connectivity Vision 2025: Challenges and Opportunities, a joint work of ERIA and the Government of Mongolia for the 11th ASEM Summit 2016 in Ulaanbaatar, provides the ideas for an ASEM connectivity road map for the next decade which can give ASEM a unity of purpose comparable to, if not more advanced than, the integration and cooperation efforts in other regional groups. ASEM has the platform to create a connectivity blueprint for Asia and Europe. This ASEM Connectivity Vision Document provides the template for this blueprint. About ERIA The Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia (ERIA) was established at the Third East Asia Summit (EAS) in Singapore on 21 November 2007. It is an international organisation providing research and policy support to the East Asia region, and the ASEAN and EAS summit process.

It is hoped that in the long term this will help to solve many of the important social and economic issues such as job creation, diversification of the economy and accelerated development of regions, as well as increasing incomes and quality of life of the country’s population. When developing measures to ensure accelerated development of the tourism industry of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the main tasks and priorities of the state government policy in the sphere of tourism includes giving tourism the status of a strategic sector of the economy and is making this industry a powerful tool for sustainable development. Presently, most visitors who decide to travel to Uzbekistan are only interested in visiting the cultural and historical attractions and they stay for only a short amount of time. However, if the government wants tourists to come for a longer time period and to encourage repeat visitations, they must promote other niche tourism markets as well as cultural tourism such as adventure tourism, gastronomic and wine tourism and religious tourism.

In addition, this study investigated the mediating role of the sense of reliving with regard to satisfaction and loyalty. A total of 477 respondents participated and were used for the final analysis. The results suggest that destination attractiveness includes multidimensional constructs consisting of five dimensions, namely, cultural attractiveness, natural attractiveness, the local people and superstructure, infrastructure, and price attractiveness. Cultural attractiveness, the warm hospitality of local people, and the superstructure appear to be the competitive attributes of Silk Road tourism in Uzbekistan affecting tourist satisfaction. Furthermore, the results reveal that tourist satisfaction increases loyalty. A mediating role of the sense of reliving with regard to satisfaction and loyalty was also confirmed. Tourists remember their travel experiences upon returning home, relive Silk Road Citation: Raimkulov, M.; travel experiences, and demonstrate their behavioral intentions. These findings can provide a deeper Juraturgunov, H.; Ahn, Y.-j. understanding of destination attractiveness and memorable experiences for increasing loyalty to Destination Attractiveness and destinations related to Silk Road tourism in Uzbekistan.

  • How Many Core Areas? the “Upper Paleolithic Revolution” in an East Eurasian Perspective
    Journal of The Israel Prehistoric Society 35 (2005), 143-158 How Many Core Areas? The “Upper Paleolithic Revolution” In An East Eurasian Perspective LEONID B. VISHNYATSKY Institute for the History of Material Culture, Dvortsovaya nab.18, St.Petersburg, 191186, Russia; [email protected] INTRODUCTION I first came across the work of Professor Ronen in 1980 when I just started to study archaeology. Since then his publications have occupied a permanent place on my working table serving as an invaluable source of ideas and information. This paper is devoted to one of the subjects that always have been in the center of Prof. Ronenʼs interests. The dominant scenario of the Middle to Upper Paleolithic transition is the one which suggests that initially the technological changes forming the hallmark of a new developmental stage occurred in one more or less restricted area (core area), whereupon the innovations spread over most of the Late Pleistocene oecumene (Bar-Yosef 2000:12, 2001:282). Their spreading is often thought to be a result of migrations, followed by replacement and/or acculturation processes (e.g., Allsworth-Jones 1986; Kozlowski 1992; Mellars 1996, 1996a). This theory is apparently congruent with that of biological replacement of Neanderthals and other “archaic” hominids by anatomically modern humans, and usually it is assumed that it was the latter who invented and disseminated new and more complex forms of subsistence, technological, social, communicative and artistic behavior. Recent efforts to cast doubt on this scenario succeeded in demonstrating its shortcomings (Zilhão and d'Errico 1999), but did not offer a competitive alternative.

  • Migration Processes in Cities Under the Emirates Of
    NOVATEUR PUBLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATIONS IN ENGINEERING RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY [IJIERT] ISSN: 2394-3696 Website: ijiert.org VOLUME 7, ISSUE 6, June-2020 MIGRATION PROCESSES IN CITIES UNDER THE EMIRATES OF BUKHARA TUROPOVA MOHIDIL TURDIEVNA Termez State University "World History" Teacher of the department +998973505855 [email protected] ABSTRACT In this article, as a result of Russia's vassal subjugation of the Bukhara Khanate, its economic and political control, as well as its interference in its internal affairs, intensified. In accordance with the 1873 Russian Bukhara Treaty, the issue of increasing Russian infiltration into the Bukhara border areas was discussed. KEYWORDS: Chorjuy, New Bukhara (Kagan), Kerki and Termez-Patta-Kesarida, administrative, economic, cultural, military, industrial, merchants, usurers, merchants. INTRODUCTION Russian trade firms are increasingly moving to the khanate, selling their products freely, opening shops, and even settling down and becoming permanent residents. In addressing this important issue, Russia has developed plans to launch the Trans-Caspian-Chorjuy-Katta-Kurgan railway, strengthen water transport through the Amu Darya navy, and build the Bukhara-Termez railway in a short time. It should be noted that even though the lands inhabited by Russian and Russian-speaking people were at the expense of the Emirate of Bukhara, the immigrants did not pay land taxes to the emirate's treasury and did not obey the rules of the emirate. Although Articles 4, 8, 11 and 12 of the 1873 Russian-Bukhara agreement stipulate that a Russian citizen seeking to move to Bukhara must first obtain a special permit from a Bukhara judge and then be registered with a Russian political agency.

  • The Importance of the Great Silk Road in the Organization of International
    THE IMPORTANCE OF THE GREAT SILK ROAD IN THE ORGANIZATION OF INTERNATIONAL TOURISM AND ENSURING THE HARMONY OF THE NATION Islamova Durdonakhon Rustamkhon kizi The student of Gulistan State University Annotation. The climatic conditions of Uzbekistan, its mountains, rivers, forests, historical and modern cities, a high level of specific national culture are considered a travel destination. The identification and reconstruction of our tourist attractions, the creation of favorable opportunities for tourists, the new reform of the tourism system are evidence of our thoughts. Key words: Tourism, tourist, reconstruction, the Great Silk Road, history, democratic, artisans, pilgrims, ancestors. After gaining independence, a number of measures were developed in Uzbekistan aimed at economic growth, social development, interethnic harmony, further reform of religious tolerance and, most importantly, building a democratic civil society. Widespread use of world experience in this regard is ineffective. In this regard, the tourism sector is undergoing radical reforms and a number of changes. The reflection and reconstruction of our tourist attractions, the creation of favorable opportunities for tourists and the reform of the tourism system are evidence of our vision. Uzbekistan is a tourist destination with climatic conditions, mountains, rivers, forestry, historical and modern cities and a distinctive national culture. Historical and cultural monuments in Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva and other cities attract not only residents of our country, but also travelers, scientists and statesmen from foreign countries. In this regard, the development of tourism along with close socio-economic ties between countries also contributes to unity, harmony, solidarity and hospitality. The development of modern railways, water and air transport, as well as the level of modern demand, can significantly increase the number of tourists.
