Alimbekov: Cultural ties between Baku and Tashkent continue to develop through literature exchange

Cultural ties between Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan continue to develop through the exchange of literary heritage.

As BAKU.WS reports with reference to Report from Tashkent, Professor Adhambek Alimbekov of Tashkent University of Oriental Studies stated this to journalists.

According to him, in the past this activity was noticeably lower than it is now: "Since the 1920s, Uzbek literature, writers, poets, and playwrights have actively interacted with Azerbaijan. Works of Uzbek authors - books, dramaturgy, works on statehood - were published in Azerbaijan."

Alimbekov emphasized that cultural cooperation with Azerbaijan is consistently developing, contributing to the further strengthening of ties between the peoples.
