He informed that before disseminating information related to the life of the whole country, it should be based on all reasonable facts, taking into account what its consequences will be.
“To tell the truth, I was very impressed when I saw the inquiry of “Ozodlik” about the oil and gas fields of Uzbekistan. I wonder if this information is true.
But I waited to see what the authorities of Uzbekistan, organizations responsible for the field would say. If the authorities are silent on this issue, then I would assume that this information is true.
But yesterday, I learned from the statements given by the Ministry of Energy, Uzbekneftgaz, opinions of journalists and bloggers, and from the evidence presented by the responsible organizations that, in my opinion, “Ozodlik” made two serious mistakes,” the former deputy said.
According to him, the first is that the allegation that Uzbekistan gave all the gas and oil fields with all rights to one company for 35 years and $35 billion was used for the company owned by one person (ERIELL, ENTER Engineering) turned out to be false.
“If the correspondents of “Ozodlik” who put forward these accusations have stronger evidence than the evidence presented by the authorities of Uzbekistan, they should show it. If there is no such evidence, it should be recognized that a mistake was made. This will also be a worthy position of the mass media,” Kusherbayev wrote.
It is noted that the second mistake is that the normative documents provided by the Uzbek authorities are more reliable than the accounting documents of some enterprises. All agreements were truthfully stated. These possible arguments should have been considered before the inquiry.
Ozodlik’s inquiry appears to be an attempt to spread information to the public with deeply unsubstantiated claims. It remains unclear what the purpose of this attempt is.
In any case, before disseminating information related to the life of the entire country, it should be based on all reasonable facts, taking into account what its consequences will be.
At this point, this material can literally shake the people of Uzbekistan. Releasing unfounded and unreliable information to the international public is considered manipulation of people,” the ministerial adviser concluded.
