Viewing cable 08TASHKENT1201, TASHKENT TIDBITS OCTOBER 20, 2008 \

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #08TASHKENT1201.

SUBJECT: TASHKENT TIDBITS OCTOBER 20, 2008 \
 \
Classified By: POL-ECON Chief Nicholas Berliner for \
reasons 1.4 b and d. \
 \
 \
UNDP and Uzbek Customs Launch New Web Site \
------------------------------------------ \
1. (C) The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and \
Uzbekistan's State Customs Committee have launched a new \
website (www.customsreform.uz), which will include updates on \
the latest changes in Customs regulation and discussions of \
the new Customs Code.  An English-language version is in the \
works. \
 \
Non-Stop Service to Switzerland \
------------------------------- \
 \
2. (C) Uzbekistan Airlines last week announced the expansion \
of its route network to include a new non-stop flight linking \
Tashkent and Geneva.  At first glance this seems like an \
unusual choice since the airline already serves several major \
European hubs and Geneva is not a particularly large city; \
Zurich is also a more of a gateway airport.  We can't even \
convince the Government of Uzbekistan to extend prison visit \
agreements with the Geneva-based International Committee of \
the Red Cross.  The main reason may be that the new Uzbek \
Permanent Representative to the UN in Geneva happens to be \
President Karimov's daughter, Gulnora Karimova, who would \
otherwise be subjected to time-consuming layovers in Paris, \
Frankfurt, or Milan on her commutes.  The direct flight may \
also prove popular with Uzbek "biznessmen" seeking to do \
anonymous banking. \
 \
Russian Ambassador Moving On \
---------------------------- \
3. (U) The Russian MFA reported on its website that the \
Russian Ambassador to Tashkent, Farit Muhametshin, has been \
appointed the head of the Federal Agency for Commonwealth of \
Independent States (CIS) Affairs, Citizens Living Abroad, and \
International Humanitarian Cooperation.  The Charge \
d'Affaires will be Vazyh Ibragimovich Serazaev until a new \
envoy is named.  In an October 18 article the Uzbek website \
uzmetronom.com credited Muhametshin, an ethnic Tatar, with \
the "restoration of friendly and allied relations between the \
states." \
 \
Russia's Economy and Uzbek Migrants \
----------------------------------- \
4. (C) The effect of the world economic crisis on Uzbekistan \
was the topic of discussion at a meeting of embassy and IFI \
economists hosted last week by the Tashkent office of the \
EBRD.  A significant portion of the discussion was devoted to \
the effect a downturn in the Russian economy would have on \
the up to 5 million Uzbek migrant laborers in Russia.  A \
representative of the Russian trade mission assured us that \
the Russian migration service would be ruthless and efficient \
in deporting undocumented laborers, but his assertion was met \
with raised eyebrows.  Other participants posited the more \
believable notion that highly qualified Uzbeks working in \
Russia will always find work and will remain through any \
recession, whereas unskilled laborers employed mainly in the \
construction industry may flood back to their family bases in \
Uzbekistan.  Given that officially acknowledged remittances \
amounted to USD 1.6 billion in 2007 (nearly 9% of the Uzbek \
GDP), a mass return of unskilled laborers could be the most \
significant manifestation of the world economic crisis in \
Uzbekistan. \
 \
Iranian Ambassador Takes Four Months to Present Credentials \
--------------------------------------------- ------------- \
5. (C) Iran's new ambassador to Uzbekistan Muhammad \
Keshovarzoda was in Tashkent for four months before \
presenting his credentials to President Karimov on October \
15.  That Karimov was clearly in no hurry to receive \
Keshovarzoda can be seen as a reflection of GOU attitudes \
about Iran generally and suspicions about Tehran's motives in \
the region. \
