The head of the Russian Federation MIA called on his Uzbek colleagues to join the Agreement on mutual legal assistance on administrative issues in the field of exchange of personal data, send information to the Interstate Information Bank for registering convicted citizens of the republic and organize on a regular basis the exchange of information about citizens of Uzbekistan who have changed their settlement data. According to him, this is necessary to streamline migration flows, reduce negative trends in this area and ensure the security of the two states.
