In particular, students were informed on Monday morning that the final exams at the Institute of Finance will not be held on Monday. The reason for this is the visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin to Uzbekistan. In Yunusabad district, the school specializing in specific sciences under the national research university "Institute of Irrigation and Agricultural Mechanization Engineers Tashkent" was told that the exams scheduled for Monday were postponed due to Putin's visit.

According to our understanding, in connection with road construction and repair works in the city by the order of the Minister of Higher Education, Science and Innovation of the Republic of Uzbekistan Kongratbay Sharipov signed on May 24, higher education in Tashkent was closed on May 27 classes and final exams have been canceled. The students informed us that the order was announced on Monday morning. Questions about the fact that the order signed on May 24 was announced to students on the morning of May 27 and that this situation is related to the traffic restrictions related to the movement of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, who is in our capital, remain under question.

In this regard, our request to the press service of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation remained unanswered.
