Uzbekistan is a source and destination country for human trafficking. Despite a notable decrease in forced labour during the annual cotton harvest, instances of nationals subject to this practice persist in several areas. Local officials in some districts continue to impose cotton production quotas, incentivizing recruitment. In the past few years, however, the government has made progress in reducing forced child labour in the cotton fields. Uzbek victims are locally exploited in other ways, including brothels, clubs and private residences. Over half of Uzbek migrant workers avoid the complex bureaucratic processes required to obtain proper documentation in Russia, which makes them vulnerable to human trafficking. Additionally, many migrant workers from Uzbekistan face high risks of trafficking within Russia itself, where migrants are charged high work permit fees that make them vulnerable to debt-based coercion. Corrupt, low-level officials are said to be involved in this market. Uzbekistan is a source of migrant labour to other countries and presumably has a considerable human smuggling market. Given demand for cheap labour in Russia, some Uzbeki nationals are known to migrate to the country irregularly with the help of smugglers. Although the recent economic uncertainty in Russia might push Uzbeki nationals to look for other countries to migrate to. Uzbek nationals travel to Turkey, proceed to Central America and then Mexico to reach the southern US border, along widely used migratory routes. In the days after the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan, hundreds of Afghans arrived in Uzbekistan via land and air. Since Uzbekistan is not a signatory to the UN refugee convention, many of those Afghan refugees face the risk of deportation and are vulnerable to crime and corruption in the country. Uzbekistan reports sporadic and unorganized extortion incidents targeting local businesses. Uzbekistan has low levels of illicit arms trading. One contributing factor is the strength of the border monitoring with Tajikistan and Afghanistan, significantly restricting the movement of people. Negative cultural attitudes towards firearms inherited from Soviet times is believed to be the reason behind the low level of privately owned firearms. Trade in counterfeit goods is prevalent in Uzbekistan, especially food products, household chemicals, cosmetics and medicines that can be found in domestic markets. High level of corruption facilitates this illicit trade. The illegal sale and purchase of alcohol and tobacco products is a ubiquitous issue in Uzbekistan, especially in the Fergana region. To fight against the illicit trade in excise goods, the government banned the sale of non-labelled products. Illicit logging appears to be the most prolific flora crime in Uzbekistan. This issue is exacerbated by the need for wood to heat homes and cook food in autumn and winter, when natural gas supplies in many regions are cut off to households and businesses. The government has made efforts to preserve valuable tree species by extending the moratorium on cutting down certain protected species that are not part of the state forest. Despite the prevalence of such illicit activities, there is sporadic evidence highlighting the involvement of organized crime groups in this market. Poaching, illicit trade and possession of protected animals, as well as illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, occur in the country albeit on a smaller scale. The criminal market for fauna-related crime is transnational in nature, which would suggest profits are accrued by domestic and foreign actors alike. Wildlife smuggling also happens along existing drug trade routes. The illicit extraction, smuggling, and mining of natural resources, including gold and other commodities, are common occurrences in Uzbekistan. Although private gold mining was legalized in , illegal mining continues to be prevalent. Given that gold is seen as a safe investment during financial turmoil, the global financial crisis in the wake of the COVID pandemic might have provided more incentives for people to continue with illegal gold extraction. This criminal market is transnational in nature and profits are accrued to domestic and foreign actors alike. Uzbekistan is a transit country for Afghan heroin bound for Russia, and for heroin precursors bound for Afghanistan. The Uzbek market is relatively modest compared to Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. This is largely due to tighter controls over the borders with Tajikistan and Afghanistan, which has shifted a significant part of opiate trafficking to Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. The heroin trade involves more foreign actors than domestic criminal organizations. While corruption is widespread in Uzbekistan, collusion between drug trafficking groups and law enforcement is not pervasive. Furthermore, COVIDrelated issues like less disposable income, lower quality of drugs, an increase in the price of drugs and a decrease in the supply of opiates, have resulted in an overall decrease or at least a change in drug use in Uzbekistan. Cocaine is not widely consumed in Uzbekistan due to the high price of the drug and low purchasing power in the country. Its consumption is limited to wealthy urban residents who use cocaine recreationally. Similarly, cannabis use and cultivation seem to be limited, although the country does act as a transit point for drugs trafficked from Afghanistan to Russia. The consumption, distribution and sale of synthetic drugs, especially tramadol, are all on the rise in Uzbekistan. Organised crime groups are involved in the production of these drugs, which are mostly sold online. In the last year, internet access rates have improved across the country, and the cost of mobile broadband has decreased. This has led to a rise in cyber-dependent crime, with several high profile cyberattacks occurring in During the reporting period, hackers targeted 11 regional authority websites, encrypted databases in a large ministry, and attacked the systems of two insurance companies and one private bank. Even though the government is trying to enhance the security of personal data, certain initiatives are lacking. Financial crimes, especially embezzlement, fraud and the misuse of public funds, committed by both public and private actors are widespread in the country. Uzbekistani political elites and business groups have allegedly been involved in fraudulent practices. Uzbekistan is currently undergoing a series of economic reforms that promote private investment and the privatization of the economy, but this process is accompanied by accusations of corruption and kickbacks. Cases of financial fraud are prevalent in the country. These cases are often related to deceptive offers of work abroad; selling or buying real estate or plots of land; and applying for fake university courses or jobs, among others. It is difficult to distinguish between loose networks, mafia-style groups and state-embedded actors in Uzbekistan since all are intertwined. State-embedded actors are known to be involved in illicit activities and corrupt practices especially in certain industries, including cotton production and the natural gas sector, resulting in significant losses to state resources. That said, collusion between drug traffickers and law enforcement is not common. The influence of loose criminal-style networks has been on the rise in recent years. This increase can be attributed to the growing numbers of these criminal networks, driven by the economic crisis resulting from the COVID pandemic. These networks operate with transnational links to other foreign networks. They tend to operate in major criminal markets like human trafficking, flora crimes, non-renewable resource crimes, the heroin trade and the synthetic drug trade, and they are known to perpetrate medium to high levels of violence. Private sector actors, specifically those who are politically exposed, often launder the proceeds of crime. Business groups with connections to the political elite have expanded at an exponential rate, through preferential commercial relationships with the state or with state-owned entities. Private commercial banks continue to be operated by politically exposed people, shadowy oligarchs and — perhaps most worryingly — individuals implicated in money laundering and corruption scandals. Additionally, former mafia-style groups remnants of the Soviet period have been integrated into the business community where they combine legal and illicit activities and benefit from the protection afforded by certain government representatives. These groups engage in a variety of crimes such as money laundering, extortion, bribery and robbery. Foreign diasporas do not exert control over any of the organized criminal markets in Uzbekistan, and the level of interaction with foreign criminal actors within the country is minimal to moderate. The Uzbekistan government encourages cooperation and interaction among the special services of each of the counties in the Commonwealth of Independent States CIS , including exchange of information and joint activities to combat drug trafficking and organized crime. However, public perception of the Uzbek state itself is poor, as it is perceived to be corrupt and unreliable. Additionally, the democratic process is not independent and not protected from criminal influence. Although the country has low levels of state legitimacy, governance and the efficiency of political leadership have improved steadily over the last decade. Uzbekistan has little state transparency. Public resources are misused to benefit those close to the ruling elite. Corruption is widespread and affects the daily lives of citizens. Legal and institutional reform is needed to ensure meaningful separation of powers and adequate public accountability of government bodies. That being said, the government has a number of anti-corruption and organized crime policies in place. Recent reforms include the development of a database in that contains the names of former corrupt government officials, to prevent their re-employment within the government; and the creation of a national anti-corruption council that includes civil society representatives. Additionally, in , the government launched an electronic platform where public organizations can monitor and evaluate anti-corruption activities. Despite these efforts, however, there are still numerous reports of corruption in the country, especially at a local level. Uzbekistan has ratified most of relevant international treaties related to organize crime, except the Arms Trade Treaty of , and two UN Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime UNTOC protocols — against the smuggling of migrants and against the illicit manufacture and trafficking in firearms. Though Uzbekistan promotes international cooperation to combat organized crime, its efforts are undermined by corruption and insufficient institutional capacity. Forced labour violations are considered administrative in nature for first offense, with fines levied by the labour inspectorate; repeat offenses are considered criminal. The Uzbek government adopted its first laws related to cyber-security in , but the implementation of these regulations remains ineffective. In line with the entire political system in the country, the judicial system in Uzbekistan is highly corrupt. It is not independent either, despite constitutional provisions. Judges usually act together with prosecutors and the police to produce convictions. As a result of corruption and lack of training, courts do not adequately protect victims of various human rights violations, nor do they bring perpetrators to justice. However, under the new political leadership, the country has embarked on a process of judicial reform: a supreme judicial council has been established to put an end to external pressure and strengthen the system as a whole. Corruption in law enforcement remains rampant through the entire chain of command, including among senior officers. Police detain people on false charges in an attempt to intimidate whistle-blowers and prevent them from exposing corruption. In theory, the state security service and the department responsible for combating corruption, extortion and racketeering have mandates to deal with economic crimes and corruption, but reports suggest that law enforcement authorities are used to implementing corrupt schemes to undermine political and business rivals, and to detain and prosecute business executives, as an integral part of their extortion and expropriation mechanisms. Police violence is also common in the country. In terms of drug control, law enforcement in Uzbekistan continues to focus mainly on the smuggling of narcotics from Afghanistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. The government has cyber-security and environmental policy divisions in place to keep related criminal activities in check. Given its geographic location in the heart of Central Asia, Uzbekistan is a major transit point for most organized criminal markets. The country is located along major trafficking routes, such as the opium and heroin markets of Afghanistan, which exacerbates its vulnerability to criminal flows. The mountainous terrain on the borders with Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Kyrgyzstan presents an additional challenge. However, due to the perceived dangers of a spill-over of Islamist insurgency in recent years, protection along the borders with Afghanistan and Tajikistan has increased. The issue of cyber-security is poorly formulated in the strategy, however, and lacks a holistic national approach. Uzbekistan has anti-money laundering AML measures in place, and an interdepartmental commission has been established to adhere to international Financial Action Task Force FATF recommendations to combat money laundering, the financing of terrorism and the financing of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The country has made some credible efforts to conduct financial investigations related to organized crime, and during it continued to improve its anti-money laundering framework. In the same year, parliament adopted regulations related to AML information-sharing; it passed a decree on the development of an AML strategy; and it amended legislation on bank secrecy. Despite these efforts, the risk of money laundering and terrorist financing remains quite high, and the long-term effects of prevention efforts are yet to be observed in practice. The capacity of the government to ensure that legitimate businesses are able to operate free from the influence of criminal groups has improved over the past two decades. The state has taken measures to simplify the procedure for registering new businesses, reduce interference by regulatory authorities in business activities, and abolish currency controls. Although the current economic environment allows for businesses to expand, there is still lots of red tape that business owners have to reckon with — in addition to land and property rights not being effectively upheld. The COVID pandemic and its subsequent effects on the global economy have impeded the progress of many governmental reforms and led several private businesses to bankruptcy. The state places some focus on treating and caring for victims of organized crime, but non-state actors are more active in this area. The government has operated as many as centres to assist victims of violence and trafficking, but some of these centres did not provide adequate protection when research was conducted. There have also been ongoing delays with registering NGOs, which has constrained efforts by civil society to monitor and assist victims. The government requires victims to file a criminal complaint with their community authorities to be eligible for government-provided rehabilitation and protection services. However, the majority of identified victims were reluctant to contact or cooperate with law enforcement because of their distrust for the system, and because they feared for their own safety or the safety of their families. The government also lacks a standardized process to identify victims from vulnerable populations and refer them to protective services, especially those subjected to internal trafficking. This has led to potential victims being penalized, particularly those involved in sex work. Despite these negatives, the Uzbekistan government has made some efforts in recent years to increase protection for victims of human trafficking. As of , the government managed around 20 centres for drug treatment and rehabilitation, but these are reported to have limited capabilities. The Uzbekistan government has campaigns in place to ensure that all citizens are aware of their labour rights. With respect to human trafficking, Uzbekistan has maintained its prevention efforts. Prevention efforts against systemic child labour and forced labour in the cotton harvest industry have resulted in a notable decrease in these crimes. Still, cotton production quotas imposed by local officials of some districts inevitably lead to some adults entering into forced labour. The government continued activities under its National Commission on Trafficking in Persons and Forced Labour, even during the pandemic, but there remains a lack of communication and coordination between the commission and civil society, along with an absence of funding. This has led to an overreliance on assistance from NGOs and other international groups. There are whistle-blowing mechanisms in place for certain crimes, such as illicit logging and the distribution and sale of synthetic drugs, but the whistle-blowing role is mainly carried out by journalists, bloggers and environmental activists. Civil society organizations CSOs and independent human rights activists have played an active role in recent years, such as drawing the attention of the international community to the problems of government-compelled forced labour among adults and children during the annual cotton harvest. The government is not open to criticism and officials perceive some CSOs to be hostile. However, there are some instances of cooperation between the government and CSOs, especially in areas related to organized crime. When it comes to non-governmental organizations NGOs , the government has controls in place. While the law allows for freedom of association, the government restricts this by requiring NGOs to obtain permission for their activities from the Ministry of Justice. Media freedom is extremely limited, but there has been some progress on this front: imprisoned journalists have been freed, access to censored websites has been granted, and the process of media registration has improved. Despite this, criticism of government remains out of the question. The state exercises control over all media coverage and requires all media to be registered with the authorities — and to provide copies of publications to the government. The same restrictions extend to independent online media.

The content of this summary does not necessarily reflect the official opinions of the European Union, nor the official opinion of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and should be seen as the product of CADAP 5. No study on the prevalence of drug use among the general population has been conducted in the Republic of Uzbekistan. For the study, schools were randomly selected according to their geographical location in the city of Tashkent and in the Tashkent, Samarkand, Andijan, Bukhara, and Surkhandarya regions. A total of 5 children born in 2 boys and 3 girls were interviewed. The study found low levels of drug use — about 0. All these cases were experimental, and did not turn into regular use. Each section provides 17 hours of training per year. It found that The Tashkent City Drug Clinic, in conjunction with the Department of Addiction of the Tashkent Institute of Advanced Medical Education, prepared an hour programme for teachers about the prevention and early detection of drug addiction among children and adolescents. The programme includes training in recognising the signs that someone is using drugs, the medical and social consequences of abuse, and identification of risk groups in schools. It describes specific measures for teachers to take if they detect drug consumption, the basic principles of drug prevention, how to implement a school drug-dependence prevention programme, and interactive methods of prevention work with the students. It highlights the role of schools and families in preventing drug dependence, working with the parents. An hour programme of seminars was developed for medical doctors working in primary care, addressing the early detection and prevention of alcoholism, drug addiction and drug abuse. A similar six-hour training programme has been provided for Mahalla activists on the prevention and early detection of drug abuse. At the National University and several colleges in Tashkent trained facilitators and representatives from the Department of Addiction of TUDI conducted a programme on preventive education against drug use, which has been attended by 1 students. Preventive activities reached 31 young people from all the regions of the country. From 1 February to 1 March the country held a special event for the prevention of drug abuse among young people, to identify those involved in drug trafficking, and to determine the involvement of young people in drug addiction and with drug dealers. Meetings and discussions were organised at higher education institutions and their branches, colleges and secondary schools, which were attended by more than 3. In addition, meetings and discussions were held at 2 institutions, organisations and enterprises where the bulk of workers are young people. Within a month dedicated to the prevention of drug use at the occasion of the International Day against Drug Abuse 26 June over 1. More than 1. Posters with a social message were placed on the main streets of regional centres. The national and local press published about special articles. The topic was also given broad coverage by the National Television and Radio Company in the central and regional channels through TV and radio programmes, news reports, art films and documentaries. The most recent study of the prevalence of problem drug use in Uzbekistan was held under the auspices of UNODC in It estimated that the number of injecting problematic drug users in was 0. Drug treatment specialists have expressed caution about this high figure, and more reliable analysis is required using standard scientific epidemiological methods. According to the results of the study, the average age at which drugs were first injected was In This pattern is much more common among males A total of According to the Ministry of Health, the number of IDUs registered in the narcological register 1 was 8 in 9 in The number of injecting heroin users was 8 , or The proportion of opium injectors in all IDUs was 7. According to this normative document, the register records those who use psychoactive substances without prescription, and voluntarily attend or are directed by the law enforcement authorities or medical facilities to attend public drug treatment centres for medical examination. If drug dependence is diagnosed, individuals are subject to regular medical check-ups and dynamic observation in outpatient substance abuse treatment units. The diagnosis can be made in both outpatient and inpatient facilities, but only by narcologists and on the basis of a thorough examination. If an individual disagrees with the diagnosis of drug dependence, they may make a complaint to higher health authorities or to the court. The decision on whether someone should be included in the dispensary register is taken by the medical advisory committee of each drug treatment facility. Dispensary registration is carried out at the place of residence of a drug user, at the local drug treatment facility. Exclusions apply to people who apply voluntarily for anonymous drug treatment. In these cases, the dispensary registration of patients is not performed. Patients whose addiction continues without remission and those who first applied for drug treatment in the outpatient setting are examined at least once a month. During follow-up, patients should receive adequate medical care to prolong remission. Dispensary registration of three years is stipulated in cases of a sustained period of remission. In the first year of remission the patient is examined once a month; in the second year of remission this is reduced to once every two months; and in the third year, once every three months. Removal from dispensary registration in connection with stable remission takes place on the basis of the opinion of the medical advisory committee and drug treatment facility where the patient is observed. In cases of drug use without clinical signs of dependence, drug users are subject to preventive registration. The purpose of preventive registration is to prevent the formation of drug dependence. Drug users on preventive supervision are examined at least once a month. Full abstinence from drug use and the absence of signs of dependence limit the proactive monitoring period to one year. In the event of continued drug use and the formation of drug dependence syndrome, the patient is transferred to dispensary registration Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, a. The total number of people registered in the medical preventive and dispensary treatment institutions was 20 in 20 in The number of drug addicts on dispensary registration was 18 in 19 in The national prevalence rate of those registered with the narcological system decreased to 7. In the number of patients treated in drug treatment facilities was 4 5 in , of whom 4 Some Most of the patients treated 4 , or No users of amphetamines, ecstasy and cocaine were registered among the individuals who were treated. The number of patients who sought hospital care in was 3 4 in , of which people were seeking treatment for the first time ever In the proportion of patients treated as inpatients was In some drug addicts were compulsorily treated in Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, a. In some 3 new HIV cases were identified 3 in , of whom in were injecting drug users Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, b. Among all registered persons living with HIV 18 in and 21 in , the number and proportion of HIV-infected drug users reduced from 6 In recent years, a bio-behavioural surveillance survey BBS has been conducted in Uzbekistan to assess the epidemiological situation with respect to infectious diseases among IDUs and other risk groups. The purpose of this BBS is to systematically and regularly collect information for the study of the dynamics and factors in the spread of HIV infection in combination with monitoring risk behaviour in risk groups injecting drug users, commercial sex workers, men who have sex with men, etc. The BBS methodology is based on the representative sampling of individual groups of the population and is less costly in comparison with studies in the general population. The BBS uses a standard case definition, a standard research protocol, which is performed under standard conditions during the implementation of the BBS in all survey centres to ensure the comparability of the data. The sampling design is respondent-driven sampling RDS. The calculation of the sample size is determined separately for each sentinel site, depending on the assessment of the prevalence of HIV among injecting drug users, the size of the accepted sampling error, and the number of injecting drug users using the Epi-Info 3. BBS does not change the known types of surveillance, such as the current national system, unlinked anonymous and other forms of surveillance, but complements them. The case definition of HIV for BBS purposes is based on the following laboratory criteria: a positive result of the analysis of the specimen in the screening test for HIV antibodies followed by positive test results in confirmation tests. The specimen can be whole blood, serum or dried blood. The survey reported that the prevalence of HIV among injecting drug users was 8. The institution responsible for the collection of data on drug-related deaths is the Central Bureau of Forensic Medicine of the Ministry of Health of Uzbekistan. Data by gender, age, and geographical region are sent once every six months to the Monitoring Centre of the Ministry of Health. According to the Central Bureau of Forensic Medicine of the Ministry of Health, the number of deaths from drug overdoses was 37 in 38 in , or 0. The number of drug addicts removed from dispensary registration in drug treatment facilities as a result of death was in in , accounting for 2. The overall mortality of drug users was found to be 6. The country has a network of specialised drug treatment facilities consisting of the Republican Drug Treatment Centre, 16 drug dispensaries 13 of which have inpatient units , three substance abuse hospitals, and 11 drug treatment offices within the system of psychiatric hospitals. At local levels, central outpatient clinics have opened narcological rooms. There are 34 functioning juvenile narcological rooms. In total there are 1 beds available for the treatment of substance abuse patients Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, a. Private drug treatment clinics also exist in the country. According to the Ministry of Health, 18 private clinics have received a licence to provide drug addiction treatment since The Department of Addiction and Adolescent Psychopathology of the Tashkent Institute of Advanced Medical Education is the leading agency with a methodological function in substance abuse treatment. Along with the pharmacological treatment, psychological counselling, psychotherapy or complex medico-social rehabilitation can be used. Drug treatment facilities implement a model for providing drug treatment based on a holistic approach to meeting the needs of drug addicts for medical, psychological and social services to ensure the quality and efficiency of therapeutic interventions, the expansion of the list of services, and increased access for drug users to treatment and prevention programmes. The components of the model are detoxification, pharmacological treatment of withdrawal symptoms, inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation and preventive treatment. Interventions are implemented in a strict sequence, with the gradual transfer of the patient from inpatient to outpatient treatment. A medical report on the need for compulsory treatment is issued after a patient has been examined by a specialised medical board for drug examinations, organised within the narcological service. Compulsory treatment is stipulated by the court only for those patients who disturb public order and the rights of others or who presented a health, moral or safety threat especially physical violence to others. Compulsory treatment is carried out in specialised medical institutions of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Compulsory treatment is carried out in accordance with the standard for diagnosis, treatment and medical and social rehabilitation of drug patients approved by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan in December The duration of compulsory medical treatment is determined by the commission of specialised medical institutions within five days of the patient being placed on compulsory treatment. In determining the period of compulsory treatment, clinical parameters duration of the disease, severity of clinical manifestations of the syndrome according to the severity of personality disorder and the level of social pathology are taken into account. Re-examination with a view to extending the compulsory treatment is carried out only in the event of insufficient recovery of the patient after the initial term of the treatment Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, ; Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Uzbekistan, In the number of trust points was ; currently there are The number and location of the trust points depends on the situation in each region. In some IDUs visited trust points. The trust points disseminated 11 information and educational materials more than 7 booklets and leaflets, and 3 brochures and more than 2. In addition, IDUs received more than 2. Those who asked for HIV tests received anonymous pre- and post-test consultations, and also counselling on HIV, sexually transmitted infections, the consequences of drug abuse, etc. More than referrals to specialists narcologists, obstetrician-gynaecologists, dendrologists, therapists, psychologists, etc. In the law enforcement agencies of the Republic of Uzbekistan reported 8 drug-law offences 8 in , including selling 4 , trafficking , storage 1 , cultivation 1 and running drug dens In the judicial authorities investigated 3 criminal cases of drug trafficking 4 in , which resulted in criminal charges being brought against 5 people 5 in In some 5 tons of drugs were seized tons in An analysis of the social situation of people who committed drug crimes showed that The Republic of Uzbekistan is a party to several international conventions, agreements, and treaties, including the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of , the Convention on Psychotropic Substances of , and the Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances of The activities of drug and AIDS services are governed by departmental and inter-departmental regulations. Attempts are being made to improve the legal and regulatory framework governing the activities of trust points and centres for AIDS, representing services to reduce drug-related harm. The national drug strategy was formed in with the establishment of the State Commission on Drug Control of the Republic of Uzbekistan and its executive staff — the National Research and Information Centre on Drug Control under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan. It regulates measures in the field of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors, and is intended to counter illicit trafficking, protect the health of citizens and ensure national security. The State Commission is guided by the laws of the Republic of Uzbekistan, decrees and orders of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, decrees and orders of the Cabinet of Ministers and the rules of international law on drug control. All state bodies, all enterprises, institutions and organisations regardless of ownership, and voluntary associations of citizens, are obliged to assist the State Commission on Drug Control in solving the tasks assigned to it.
