Nоvоsti Uzbekistаnа (Russian: News of Uzbekistan)[1] is a Russian-language newspaper published in Uzbekistan. It is one of the privately owned dailies in the country.

Profile[edit]

Nоvоsti Uzbekistаnа is privately owned,[2][3] namely by Media Biznes LLP[1] and is headquartered in Tashkent.[4] In the early 2000s the daily was semi-official, supporting the government of Uzbekistan.[5]

Until 16 April 2013 Bahodyr Yuldashev served as the editor-in-chief of the paper.[1]

Incidents[edit]

In June 2012 a Tashkent commercial court charged Nоvоsti Uzbekistаnа with damaging the image of the political party, Ecological Movement of Uzbekistan, due to an article published in December 2011.[6] The paper was ordered by the court to cover the procedural fees and publish a repudiation of its article about the party.[6]
