The corresponding decree was signed by the president of Uzbekistan.
It is worth noting that in November of last year, after the parliamentary elections, Turdimov was re-elected as the head of the Samarkand region administration, a position he has held since 2018. However, shortly thereafter, he was relieved of his duties due to a transition to another job. In his new role, he will succeed Akmaljon Mahmudaliev, who was dismissed for various shortcomings.
