The Consulate General of Uzbekistan in New York City has called on compatriots residing in the United States to strictly adhere to local legislation and respect public order rules, as stated in its appeal.
The consulate noted that recently, incidents involving certain Uzbek citizens breaking the law have been widely covered in mass media and social networks. It emphasized that such situations not only lead to legal liability but could also negatively affect the reputation of the entire Uzbek diaspora.
At the same time, the diplomatic mission highlighted that the majority of Uzbeks in the United States are working honestly, studying, and engaging in entrepreneurial activities, thereby contributing to shaping a positive image of Uzbekistan.
The appeal stressed that during major international events and sports competitions, attention to Uzbekistan and its citizens increases even further, making the conduct of every compatriot particularly important.
The Consulate General urged compatriots to comply with local laws, be responsible, and refrain from any actions that could harm the country's reputation.
We remind you that earlier, a group of Uzbeks who organized illegal street races was reported to have been detained.
