Tim, thank you for your post. Pls. be sure Uzbekistan is similarly to the UK and even stronger, to some extend, I believe, is committed to the media freedom #Uzbekistan#DefendMediaConference. Pls also check upon delivery the whole conversation (excl. cuts and edits).

Int'l embarassment for Foreign Minister @SMQureshiPTI as he addresses mostly empty chairs in #London at the #DefendMediaConference (attended by 1000 ppl) where I was also participating. We must boycott & expose this military-selected fascist regime where ever & whenever possible
