On December 21, a ceremony for the presentation of the International Leo Tolstoy Peace Prize was held at the hall of the N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov Saint Petersburg State Conservatory for the leaders of the states of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan.
In a solemn atmosphere, the International Leo Tolstoy Peace Prize was awarded to the President of the Republic of Tajikistan, Leader of the Nation, His Excellency Emomali Rahmon, as well as to the leaders of Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan.
President Emomali Rahmon and the heads of the neighboring states were honored with this prestigious award in 2025 for their significant contribution to strengthening peace and security in the Central Asian region.
It should be recalled that on March 31, 2025, during the meeting of the heads of state of Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan in the city of Khujand, a historic agreement on the borders of the three states, as well as the Khujand Declaration on Eternal Friendship, were signed, as a result of which the border issues between the three neighboring countries were finally resolved.
These historic events comprehensively contributed to ensuring peace and stability, sustainable development, and enhancing the international authority and prestige of the Central Asian region.
