| | Choosing Autocracy: Politics in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan |
 | | The dictatorship of Uzbekistan is the least reformed politically and economically of the three Central Asian states. | | | The 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union ushered in the creation, for the first time in history, of the independent nations of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan. | | | Bruce Pannier, "Uzbekistan: Voters 'Choose' Incumbent President," Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, 11 January 2000, available from http://www.rferl.org/nca/features/2000/01/F.RU.000111133452.html; internet; accessed 5 May 2001. |

| | UZBEKISTAN MANEUVERS |
| | From St. Petersburg, Putin reiterated his statement that Uzbekistan constituted a priority for Russia in Central Asia, at the same time, a senior U.S. government official criticized Uzbekistan’s human rights record while visiting the country. | | | Putin flattered Karimov by calling Uzbekistan a "strategic partner." The new friendship resulted in an important Uzbek-Russian treaty on cooperation in the military and military-technical spheres, renewable every five years. | | | With Putin’s ascent to power late in 1999, he paid his first overseas visit as President to Uzbekistan in May 2000, just five months after his first visit as Russia’s Prime Minister. |
