Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — A company from the United Arab Emirates, Unison Capital Investment, plans to establish a network of 100 diagnostic medical centers in Uzbekistan, according to the Dunyo news agency, citing negotiations between the parties.

The project was discussed during a meeting between Uzbekistan’s Ambassador to the UAE, Umid Shadiev, and the company’s Chief Executive Officer Tamer Akl.
