Pobrać "Узбекистан: Новая жизнь древней страны | Uzbekistan: New Life of an Ancient Country"

I also have a channel for my English-speaking audience! Subscribe now and watch my videos dubbed in English: https://www.youtube.com/c/VarlamovEng Uzbekistan is one of the most unusual republics of the former USSR. We all know about guest workers and Uzbek plov. But few people know anything more. Tamerlane built a huge empire here half a thousand years before the Union, and now monuments to him stand on all squares instead of Lenin’s. Russia has remained a close partner for Uzbekistan, but now China is increasingly visible here. After the collapse of the USSR, Islam Karimov came to power here and ruled like Brezhnev - just as long and as "stagnantly". Today I will show you a country where corruption has ancient roots, and the market economy is replaced by a bazaar. But no matter how power and politics turn out, cotton and plov remain the main values.
