Prime Minister Viktor Orbán met Shavkat Mirziyoyev, the president of Uzbekistan, for talks ahead of a summit of the Organisation of Turkic States in Bishkek.
At their talks, the two leaders highlighted a "spectacular development" of bilateral relations in recent years and noted the two countries signing a strategic partnership agreement in 2021.
Energy cooperation now covers a number of areas and Uzbekistan seeks to join the Green Energy Corridor project, a scheme crucial for Hungary's energy security.
The talks also touched upon cooperation in water management, transport, and education, as well as topical international issues.
