Holiday congratulation of Abdulla Khursanov chairman of the board of “Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combine” JSC, member of the Senate of Oliy Majlis on the occasion of 30 anniversary of Armed Forces of Uzbekistan and Defenders of Motherland.

Dear military personnel of our Armed forces and veterans, officers of law enforcement agencies!

First of all, I sincerely congratulate all of you with a glorious date in the life of our country – Motherland defenders days and 30 anniversary holiday of organization of Armed forces of Uzbekistan.

There are many honorable professions in the world, the most honorable among them is to serve for the peace of their motherland and people.

Today, our National Army has become a school of true courage, devotion and true patriotism for thousands of our boys. This fact is proudly and gratefully acknowledged by all parents and all our people in our country.

Now mothers are sending their children join the army not with tears in their eyes, but with high confidence and pride that my son will be a true defender of the Motherland. 

Appointment of term military service for one year, implementation of mobilization call reserve service, arrangement of call to military service once a year led to a sharp increase in the combat readiness of our army.          

An effective system of training and retraining of officers and sergeants has been created that meets modern requirements.

In particular, it is our duty to honor and respect our sons, who consider military service as their profession, a sacred duty to the Motherland and the people.

Establishment of the commemorative badge “30 years of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan” with the resolution of the President is another proof of this glorious date that how the defense of the Motherland is honorable and great.

As the head of our state noted, " We all need to have a good understanding of an idea: in order to ensure the peace of our country, the effectiveness of reforms performed in today’s defense depends on the unity of the army and the people.

Our president Shavkat Mirziyoyev emphasized in the meeting of security council held yesterday that “Maintaining the security, peace and tranquility of our people will remain our top priority today and in the future. Because only peace is the main guarantee of the comprehensive development of our country. New 2022 year must be a decisive year in all areas, including the Armed Forces”.

Indeed, solidarity is the main guarantee of our peaceful and prosperous life. Thanks to the solidarity of our peace-loving and noble people, the unity of the people and the army, the strength of our national army is growing day by day.

At this point, I think it is appropriate to focus on another issue: There is no blessing more precious than peace in the world! We have been witness that the unrest can become huge loss for the government and people in the example of events happened in neighboring Kazakhstan. The neighboring Kazakh people are overcoming these trials, pains and losses with solidarity and patience. We must all learn from these events, draw conclusions, and preserve peace and independence in our country! Every citizen of our country who prays for peace, works honestly and is grateful for the days of peace is in fact a defender of the Motherland.

 Dear the defenders of our Motherland!

I sincerely congratulate you once again on the glorious holiday.

May you continue to do what you can be justly and proudly worthy of our people.

I wish you all good health, family happiness, peace and prosperity in your services. May our borders be inviolable and our skies clear.

Happy holiday once again, dear defenders of the Motherland!

Abdulla KHURSANOV,

Chairman of the Board of JSC Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex,

Member Senator of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan
