Navoi’s legacy belongs not only to the Uzbek people but to all humanity. His works, which have become a unique encyclopedia of life, inspire generations and serve as a source of knowledge for researchers, literature enthusiasts, and all those seeking a deeper understanding of the rich spiritual world of the East.
The unveiling of the monument to Alisher Navoi in Tbilisi marked another significant milestone in the history of cultural ties between Uzbekistan and Georgia. Since ancient times, our peoples have been united by trade routes, mutual respect, and an interest in each other’s rich heritage.
The renowned Georgian poet Shota Rustaveli is highly respected in Uzbekistan. One of Tashkent’s main streets is named after him, and a monument honoring this classic Georgian author is located there. Similarly, this year, a central park in Tbilisi was named after Alisher Navoi.
In recent years, cultural and humanitarian cooperation between Uzbekistan and Georgia has gained momentum. The Days of Uzbek Culture and Cinema were held in Tbilisi, while the Days of Georgian Culture were held in Tashkent.
At the ceremony, it was noted that Alisher Navoi is a great figure in world literature whose invaluable works have, for centuries, called on people to embrace humanism, enlightenment, wisdom, and mutual respect.
Confidence was expressed that the monument to Alisher Navoi in Tbilisi would become another vivid symbol of the strengthening bonds of friendship between the peoples of Uzbekistan and Georgia.
