During the meeting, the interlocutor was informed about the
policy of Uzbekistan in the field of combating extremism and
terrorism, as well as the essence of the National Strategy to
Counter Extremism and Terrorism for 2021-2026.
The representative of INTERPOL, who took part in the
International conference in Tashkent on March 3-4, dedicated to the
10th anniversary of the joint implementation of the UN Global
Counter-Terrorism Strategy in Central Asia, positively assessed the
high organizational level of the event. According to him, the event
has become an effective platform for the exchange of experience and
information in the sphere of combating terrorism, countering the
ideas of extremism.
Greg Hines also expressed INTERPOL's interest in further
developing cooperation with Uzbekistan, which occupies a special
place in ensuring security in the region. The establishment in
Tashkent of the Regional Antiterrorist Structure (RATS) of the SCO
is a kind of recognition of the leading role of the republic in the
fight against terrorism.

in the field of border control. INTERPOL has extensive capabilities
to detect false documents and helps identify criminals and
terrorists among those crossing the border.
