In order to avoid misunderstandings here, on your page, I want to tell you about the sad events that occurred in our family with my father last weekend.
Because of the brain hemorrhage, which happened Saturday morning, he was hospitalized and is in intensive care unit. His condition is estimated as stable. At the moment it is too early to make any predictions about its future state.
I appeal to the people with a big request to dispense with speculation and to respect the family’s right to privacy (personal space).
I will be very grateful to all those who volunteer and support my father with their prayers.

Health is a really private matter. But only if this man is not the head of state. Even the Constitution stated that the President’s daughter could read it.

Article 96.
In case of impossibility of performance of the current President of the Republic of Uzbekistan of his duties, his duties and powers are temporarily assigned to the President of the Senate of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan, with holding for three months in full accordance with the Law “On elections of President of the Republic of Uzbekistan” the election of the President of the country.
The Constitution of Uzbekistan in Russian language.
Islam Karimov is 78 years old, he is the oldest of the presidents of the States of the former Union republics of the USSR. In addition, it is the second finding in your posts, one day behind Nursultan Nazarbayev.
Until recently, the Tashkent Khan ruled the country with a firm hand, root and pulling opposition. They say his intelligence agencies could share the experience of interrogation with the best CIA prisons. The head of state was elected several times (sometimes by referendum), although under the Constitution to take the post of the President of Uzbekistan not more than two consecutive terms.
So, according to the Constitution to perform the duties of the President of the Republic will soon be the Chairman of the Senate Nigmatilla Yuldashev. It’s unremarkable and totally ceremoniously policies rather technical figure. However, it can introduce confusion.
Since the East — a delicate matter.
Knowledgeable of the local situation people are the main contenders for the throne called the Uzbek Prime Minister Shavkat mirzijaeva and Deputy Prime Minister Rustam Azimov. Moreover, the first preference because of his experience. But I wouldn’t ignore Karimov’s daughters Gulnara and Lola. Even despite the fact that Gulnara has recently started to have problems, it is, in my opinion, is quite able to Express themselves.
Coming out from house arrest of Gulnara Karimova?
For nearly three years as a notorious 44-year-old Gulnara Karimova, the eldest daughter of the President, is under house arrest because of their ambitions — the national security service presented to the father the evidence of its intent to become the successor. “Gulnara Karimova, which in the past was the favorite daughter of her father and was considered a successor to its authoritarian power in December, told The Guardian that her sister and mother involved in a conspiracy — to restore the father against her,” wrote the newspaper.
“Karimov was outraged account Gulnara on Twitter and its presence on the Internet, claimed that this stains the image of Uzbekistan in the world,” the article says. Today all of her social media accounts are closed or blocked. Fell into disgrace daughter denied access to the Internet.
Her business collapsed, closed all the boutiques. Gulnara Karimova in 2013 does not appear on the television screens. from the information space disappeared her latest photos.
21-year-old Islam Karimov Jr. told reporters touching story in which the Uzbek leader appears my dear man, far from the corruption in which he is often accused. Once on vacation in Tashkent grandfather gave him and his sister for $ 100. “He said he wants to give me this money because wants I have always lived in full abundance, and commanded not to spend the entire amount at once. He said that I could come in a month and he will give me more money if I spend all this money,” — said the grandson.
It is believed that Karimov also outraged by the fact that Gulnara is associated with high-profile investigations in Switzerland. “Hundreds of millions of pounds blocked on Swiss accounts amid suspicions that the money connected with bribes paid in the course of the transaction with a certain Swedish Telecom company. Police searched the mansion Karimova. Karimova herself has always denied the fact of any crime,” — says the article.

Beloved daughter Lola
Another contender — the same 38-year-old Lola Karimova-Tillyaeva, who approached us on Instagram.
Last year leaked information that it had appointed as his successor father. About a year ago, said Uzbek political analyst Usman people..
He said that in April last year at the meeting in Oqsaroy residence, which was attended by a narrow circle of officials, it was announced the name of the successor, who was chosen President of the country. First it was heard, the Trustees of which are included in the inner circle: the Chairman of the national security Service, Minister of internal Affairs, the Prime Minister of Uzbekistan and the first Deputy Prime Minister.
During the meeting, according to the analyst, Karimov allegedly said that he considers useful within the next five years to transfer their place “younger and more energetic successor acceptable to all the interested parties.”I think the person I see the most appropriate person for the safe and painless transfer of power, will suit you. Think you won’t mind if during my last term gradually prepare for this mission at Lola. Unlike the ghouls, she has a diplomatic consistency and modesty. And in international circles has positive authority”, — quotes the political scientist of the Uzbek President.
Islam Karimov deemed it necessary to reassure invited: “the Transfer of the post of the President of loulé leaves in force all agreements concluded between us. First of all it concerns the further functions of heads of power structures. I mean the leadership of the national security service, interior Ministry and defense Ministry. In their posts will remain as Prime Minister and his first Deputy. Will keep your immunity, and all the privileges of the current political elite and their relatives”, — quoted the President Usman people..
Allegedly, the Uzbek leader stressed that “measures for the gradual training of Lola Karimova to this responsibility as well as organizational work for the gradual preparation of public opinion to the act of transferring political power to a successor is expected to begin in June of this year.” Check out these quotes impossible. However, Lola Karimova has become much more likely to appear on television. And the government TV channel “Uzbekistan” shows almost weekly one or two plot involving the younger daughter of the Uzbek President.
Whoever comes to power in Uzbekistan as a result of strife in our underbelly planned hot autumn. It will be interesting to watch the events. After some time something similar will happen in our closer ally — Kazakhstan. Nursultan Nazarbayev also not eternal, and he also has children.
There is no doubt that the Americans will stay, the time of the change of elites is their time. We will soon see whether we are prepared for the coming confrontation, if we can influence the situation in Central Asia.
Or do you think that all will be quiet?
