ISLAM KARIMOV IS THE FOUNDER OF THE INDEPENDENT STATE OF UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

As the First President of independent Uzbekistan, I. A. Karimov,
noted in his writings, he was firmly convinced that political independence could
not be ensured without achieving economic independence. That is why, on the
basis of the well-known five principles, he developed a program of cardinal
reforms and structural transformations of the economy of Uzbekistan, which has
received worldwide recognition as the "Uzbek model" of development. And the
fundamental basis of this model was the practical implementation of the strategic
priority - "Reforms are not for the sake of reforms, but in the name of man."
