\nEXCHANGE OF LETTERS between the Community and the Republic of Uzbekistan in relation to the establishment of companies A. Letter from the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan Sir, I refer to the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement initialled on 29 April 1996.
\nAs I underlined during the negotiations, the Republic of Uzbekistan grants to Community companies establishing and operating in the Republic of Uzbekistan in certain respects a privileged treatment. I explained that this reflects the Uzbek policy to promote by all means the establishment of Community companies in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
\nWith this in mind, it is my understanding that during the period between the date of initialling of this Agreement and the entry into force of the relevant articles on establishment of companies, the Republic of Uzbekistan shall not adopt measures or regulations which would introduce or worsen discrimination of Community companies vis-š-vis Uzbek companies or companies from any third country as compared to the situation existing on the date of initialling of this Agreement.
\nI would be obliged if you would acknowledge receipt of this letter.
\nPlease accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.
