The government of Uzbekistan has set an economic growth forecast of 6.5% for 2025. While this figure is slightly lower than previous years, it is still considered robust.

According to the Ministry of Economy, the main drivers of growth will be steady development in agriculture and services, as well as the implementation of investment projects. Experts, however, caution that achieving this forecast will require deeper structural reforms.

The prime minister emphasized the importance of expanding exports and attracting foreign investment to sustain growth. Inflation is also targeted to remain at 5-6%. Nevertheless, some economists question the feasibility of these goals given global uncertainties and domestic challenges.
