Saida Mirziyoyeva Presents Uzbekistan’s Strategy on Women's Protection and Cyber-Threats at the UN
World
Uzbekistan has officially cemented its status as a pivotal player in shaping the international agenda on global security, justice, and human rights protection. Head of the Presidential Administration Saida Mirziyoyeva concluded a high-stakes diplomatic visit to Vienna, where she delivered the nation's report at the 35th session of the UN Commission—which the republic has joined as a full member for the first time in history—and conducted a sequence of strategic, high-level negotiations. Scaling from the collective fight against transnational cybercrime to embedding the Samarkand anti-drug initiatives within UN programs and resetting ties with the Austrian parliament, the visit underscored Tashkent's readiness to project its domestic legal frameworks onto the global stage.
Saida Mirziyoyeva, Head of the Presidential Administration of Uzbekistan, attended the 35th session of the UN Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice in Vienna. At this global forum, which convened over 1,500 high-level delegates and experts from 175 countries, Uzbekistan participated for the first time as a full-fledged member of this influential international body.
During the session, Saida Mirziyoyeva presented the national report, highlighting Tashkent’s far-reaching domestic achievements in modernizing justice, preventing crime, empowering youth, and safeguarding the rights of women and children. Her speech placed a distinct emphasis on the borderless nature of contemporary threats. The Head of the Presidential Administration stressed that issues such as cybercrime, corruption, and domestic violence transcend national boundaries; consequently, combating them effectively demands consolidated action, ongoing dialogue, and global knowledge sharing.
On the sidelines of the summit, a crucial bilateral meeting was held with Monica Juma, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). The leaders outlined practical measures to disrupt transnational organized crime, halt illicit drug trafficking, and protect the younger generation. Future joint programs will integrate the strategic frameworks established at the Samarkand International Anti-Drug Forum in April 2026. Backed by UNODC, the Uzbek delegation also successfully hosted a high-profile side event targeting protective mechanisms for women and children.
The diplomatic itinerary further extended to high-level legislative talks within Austria's parliament. Saida Mirziyoyeva met with Markus Stotter, President of the Federal Council of Austria, and Walter Rosenkranz, President of the National Council of Austria. The parties evaluated the ongoing democratization of Uzbek society, public administration reforms, and avenues to scale bilateral cooperation.
Additionally, a meeting was organized with Uzbek expats employed within prominent international organizations headquartered in Vienna. Saida Mirziyoyeva commended the professionals for enhancing Uzbekistan's international profile and reaffirmed the government's long-term commitment to supporting young Uzbek nationals in acquiring elite global professional expertise.
