(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, June 4. Uzbekistan's foreign trade turnover reached $26.33 billion from January through April 2026, reflecting continued shifts in the country's external trade structure.

Data obtained by Trend from the National Statistics Committee showed that total trade expanded by $1.44 billion, or 5.8%, compared to the same period in 2025, indicating overall growth in trade activity despite diverging trends in exports and imports.

Exports amounted to $9.97 billion during the reporting period, registering a 16.8% decline year-on-year. Officials attributed the decrease mainly to changes in external demand and fluctuations in key commodity shipments.

In contrast, imports increased significantly, rising 26.7% to $16.36 billion, driven primarily by higher purchases of machinery, transport equipment, and industrial inputs.
