Mirziyoyev permits tourists to take photos of Uzbekistan
Tourists were allowed to take photos and videos in Uzbekistan without restrictions, Fergana news agency reported.
According to the agency, the relevant resolution was signed on February 6 by the country’s president Shavkat Mirziyoyev.
«Previously, the media told about «photophobia» of the Uzbek authorities. Anyone with a camera could be approached by a policeman and demanded to delete the photos. At the same time, the policemen referred to a list of secret objects, which itself was secret. Tashkent had a city instruction on the photography restrictions. In 2007, it was canceled, but in 2015 it was revived,» the agency reports.
