India and Uzbekistan have upgraded relations to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and set a $5bn (€4.29bn) trade target for 2030 during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s state visit to Tashkent. New Delhi also says the two sides are close to signing a new long-term uranium supply agreement.
The talks produced agreements and commitments across trade, energy and security, expanding cooperation in critical minerals, defence and digital infrastructure.
India’s Ministry of External Affairs said there had been “positive discussions” and that an agreement could be signed “very shortly”. The ministry also said a memorandum on mining and geological resources signed during the visit would support cooperation on critical minerals, including uranium.
