The newly appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Uzbekistan to the Sultanate of Oman Anvar Abdukhalimov left Tashkent for Muscat, the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Prior to that, Anvar Abdukhalimov worked in the Office for South Asia, the Middle East and Africa of the Foreign Ministry.
He now becomes the first Ambassador of Uzbekistan to Oman. The plans to open the embassy in Muscat were reported in April last year, when the Secretary General of the Foreign Ministry of Oman visited Tashkent.
