Trump said today (September 23): "Earlier this month, I had a call with the respected President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. Today, I want to congratulate President Mirziyoyev on signing a major agreement with Boeing! Uzbekistan Airways will purchase 22 Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, with a total value exceeding $8 billion. This will create more than 35,000 jobs in the United States. President Mirziyoyev is a man of his word, and we will continue to work together on many more matters! Thank you for your attention."
Comments: From a geopolitical perspective, Uzbekistan is located in the heart of Central Asia, with high strategic geographic value. Trump's active promotion of cooperation with Uzbekistan aims to strengthen America's influence in Central Asia. The Central Asian region has long been a focal point of great power rivalry. Through such large-scale commercial cooperation, the United States seeks to consolidate its position in the region and counter the influence of other major powers. Especially against the backdrop of Uzbekistan actively integrating into the "BRICS Plus" and joining the New Development Bank of BRICS in June this year, the U.S. wants even more to maintain its relationship with Uzbekistan through economic cooperation.
In addition, Trump emphasized that President Mirziyoyev is a man of his word, which may imply that there have been previous collaborations and commitments between the two sides, and this aircraft order may be part of a series of cooperative plans.
