According to a press note by the US Embassy in Uzbekistan, Sergio Gor will serve as the US co-chair of the newly established US-Uzbekistan Business and Investment Council, a major step forward in advancing an America First economic agenda in Central Asia and creating new opportunities for US workers, innovators, and businesses. "Ambassador Gor will lead US engagement on this council alongside Saida Mirziyoyeva, Head of the Presidential Administration of Uzbekistan. His role reflects President Trump's commitment to strengthening America's economic leadership, expanding access for US companies, and ensuring that partnerships abroad deliver real benefits for the American people," the press note said. The Council will focus on expanding US and Uzbekistani investment and export opportunities, opening high-growth sectors, especially IT and digital innovation.
