At the same time, the scale of such mutually beneficial relations between the parties continues to expand, and this will undoubtedly serve as an example for the peoples of the world for many years to come, a symbol of good neighborliness, peace, harmony and tolerance between the peoples of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
