Uzbekistan deepens ties with Canada, UK on trade and investment
Uzbekistan is advancing bilateral cooperation with Canada on seismic data exploration and with the UK on trade, investment, and UKEF-backed projects. Meanwhile, the UK and Ghana are strengthening economic links through a new Trade Resource Centre to boost bilateral trade, which reached £1.6 billion in the year to Q1 2026. These developments reflect Uzbekistan’s broader push to expand international partnerships in energy and trade, alongside UK-led initiatives to enhance market access in Africa and Central Asia.
