Uzbekistan, Tashkent – AN Podrobno.uz. Russian Prosecutor General Alexander Gutsan, during a visit to Uzbekistan, proposed to his counterpart Nigmatilla Yuldashev to sign an agreement on the transfer of prisoners sentenced to deprivation of liberty. This document would allow citizens of Russia and Uzbekistan, convicted in either country, to serve their sentences in their homeland.

As reported to Podrobno.uz by the press service of the Russian Prosecutor General's Office, Gutsan highly praised the work of the interdepartmental migration group established last year, which contributes to protecting the rights of citizens of both countries. The sides also discussed joint efforts to combat the spread of content inciting interethnic hatred.

"I consider the agreements reached on joint counteraction to the spread of extremist and terrorist ideology in our countries and the development of parameters for interaction to promptly block access to unlawful content inciting interethnic hatred and discord to be especially important," said the Russian Prosecutor General.

Following the negotiations, a Cooperation Program for supervisory authorities for 2027–2028 was signed, aimed at exchanging experience and developing responses to new threats. The head of the Russian supervisory authority invited his Uzbek counterpart to the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

A delegation of Russian prosecutors led by Alexander Gutsan arrived in Tashkent on Wednesday, April 8. As part of the visit, the head of the Russian supervisory authority intends to speak at the Law Enforcement Academy of Uzbekistan.
