“The film festival is a big holiday for us! I am very grateful to its organizers. Holding such a holiday in Uzbekistan gives an immense feeling of joy and pride for our fraternal people, for the Uzbek people. And, as Shavkat Mirziyoyev says, Uzbeks and Tajiks are one people, speaking two languages. The Uzbek and Tajik peoples drink water from the same river, we have the same soul, dreams and hopes.”
