TASHKENT: Polls opened early Sunday in Uzbekistan’s constitutional referendum, the election commission announced, kicking off a vote that could allow President Shavkat Mirziyoyev to remain in power until 2040.
Authorities say the overhaul of the constitution will improve governance and quality of life in the Central Asian country of 35 million people, whose rights have long been heavily restricted.
