A huge amount of work has been done to ensure that this exhibition is held at such a high level. Many thanks to all those who worked for more than one year and brought the matter to completion despite the coronavirus pandemic.

After the situation with the coronavirus improves, I think that many visitors to the exhibition will want to visit Tajikistan and see all the beauty of our country,” said Farrukhzod.
