Abstract
Since Uzbekistans independence, the friendship and cooperative relations between China and Uzbekistan have spanned over three decades. During this period, the two nations have experienced no significant disputes or confrontations, and their political ties have remained stable and progressively strengthened. By 2012, China and Uzbekistan further fortified their collaboration, announcing the establishment of a strategic partnership. Today, China stands as Uzbekistans primary business partner, playing a significant role in investments as well.
The achievements of the collaboration between the two countries are substantial, especially in the field of infrastructure development. For instance, railways and highways connecting the two countries have been successfully constructed. In the energy sector, their partnership has yielded notable successes, including the laying of an oil pipeline and four natural gas pipelines to China, positioning Uzbekistan as a primary supplier of natural gas and a significant source of oil to China. Concurrently, China is the main consumer of Uzbekistans energy, a collaboration that has boosted Uzbekistans economy and improved the living standards of its residents. However, despite the deep economic ties, Chinas image in Uzbekistan still requires refinement. A majority of Uzbek citizens lack a comprehensive understanding of China, largely attributed to the insufficient promotion of Chinas cultural soft power in Uzbekistan. To foster a closer relationship with Uzbekistan and the broader Central Asian region, China needs to enhance its cultural influence.
