Today, we are celebrating with great joy and happiness the 35th anniversary of the state independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan, which is a symbol of peace and tranquility, the well-being of our people, human dignity and free development in our country.

Dear professors, teachers, scientists, members of our team and esteemed students!
I sincerely congratulate you all on the greatest and most cherished holiday in the life of our people - the 35th anniversary of the state independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan!
As you know, this year we are celebrating our Independence Day in our country with great joy and happiness based on the noble idea: "Being one homeland, one people, we will create a new life and future!"
Independence is, first of all, an opportunity for us to determine our own destiny, build a free and prosperous life, restore our national values, language, spirituality and historical memory. Our thirty-five years of independent development have shown that if the people and the state unite around a single goal and work hard, even the highest goals can be achieved.
