During the talks, it was emphasized that the partnership between Uzbekistan and China in the environmental field is steadily developing, becoming more practical. Special attention was paid to the implementation of joint initiatives aimed at addressing current environmental challenges, introducing modern technologies and strengthening scientific cooperation.

Appreciation was expressed to the Chinese side for its assistance in developing the activities of the Central Asian Regional Research Center for Combating Desertification and Developing the Desert Economy at Green University, established with the participation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It was noted that this center is becoming an important platform for scientific research, training and development of innovative solutions in the field of combating land degradation.

Huang Rongqiu stressed that the discussions initiated between the parties two years ago had already yielded concrete practical results. In particular, Chinese investors are currently building 11 incinerators in Uzbekistan, reflecting the high level of trust and effectiveness of bilateral investment cooperation. The Chinese side also highly appreciated Uzbekistan's support in the prompt implementation of environmental investment projects.

In order to further expand cooperation, the Uzbek side proposed five key areas of cooperation: studying Chinese experience in studying climate change using satellite systems; familiarization with the activities of the Center of the World Meteorological Station of China, including monitoring dust storms; studying the practice of the National Monitoring Center under the Ministry of Environment of the People's Republic of China; holding a Chinese-Uzbek International Forum in the field of ecology; as well as the creation of a joint laboratory on air quality.

The Chinese side supported the proposed initiatives and expressed its readiness to move to the practical implementation of the planned areas. In particular, the possibilities of creating a joint laboratory for analytical monitoring of air and water quality, developing scientific research, and strengthening the capacity of national monitoring systems, including with the support of the World Meteorological Organization, were discussed.

The parties paid special attention to the prospects of cooperation in the field of desert economics. The possibilities of using the specialized scientific research institute in Tashkent as a regional platform for the development of this area, as well as expanding cooperation between Green University and leading Chinese educational and scientific institutions, were considered.

Following the meeting, an agreement was reached on attracting Chinese best practices in strengthening early warning systems for dust and sand storms, followed by the adaptation of these mechanisms in Uzbekistan. In addition, the Chinese side expressed its readiness to send scientists, researchers and specialists to Uzbekistan to improve the skills of national personnel, as well as to receive Uzbek delegations to exchange knowledge, experience and best environmental practices.
