At the C5+1 summit held on November 6, the President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon met with Donald Trump. The outcome of the meeting was the signing of a package of agreements that, according to the U.S. State Department, could provide multibillion-dollar profits for both countries and create jobs.
The total amount of the contracts signed exceeds 3 billion dollars. The key agreement was between "Somon Air" and Boeing for the supply of 14 aircraft models 787 Dreamliner and 737 MAX, as well as related equipment worth 3.2 billion dollars.
Tajikistan also signed a cooperation agreement with the American company Transparent Earth, which uses satellite technology to study natural resources, with a contract amount of 32.5 million dollars.
Additionally, Tajikistan will be connected to the Starlink satellite internet network owned by SpaceX. The country's authorities also signed agreements with Perplexity AI and Zypl AI to implement artificial intelligence-based solutions in government management.
Moreover, the Coca-Cola Corporation plans to invest an additional 9 million dollars in the development of its business in Tajikistan.
Emomali Rahmon noted that more than 70 American companies are already operating in Tajikistan, and the country is focused on expanding cooperation in the extraction and processing of rare metals, which represents a strategic interest for both sides.
During the C5+1 summit, Donald Trump held talks with the leaders of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. It seems that the U.S. is seeking to strengthen its presence in Central Asia, where the influence of China and Russia is increasingly noticeable. Trump characterized Central Asia as a rich region and expressed his intention to enhance cooperation.
