It’s a journey running at a stretch or stopping at some places
As I can see through the window of a train
The blooming earth
Spreading green paddy field velvet
The sight mixes at the horizon
With the morning shine
The world smiles with a charm
Overwhelming but not to be expressed in words
You are sitting before me
And raising a storm of the last days stories
Over a cup of tea
Nobody stands by me but someone whispers
I lost my senses
And kept on beholding the green paddy fields
What a wonder!
O life! You are running so deep in speed
The spreading beauty on the earth sometimes stops
Sometimes stops us in no reason
On the other hand, it seems a great reason behind there
Sometimes with you for a cup of tea
How wonderful the life led by!

Write something bright for those who experience a thousand deaths each day.
Write some smiles for those whose pillows are moist with tears each night.
Write a few pure moments of love for those who could never call anyone their own.
Write a few droplets of soothing dew on their lips.
Write true happiness in their pounding hearts.
Write the fulfillment of unrealized dreams in their eyes.
Write floral bracelets of joy for their soft hands.
Write swinging earrings of solace for their ears.
Even if you write nothing else, dear Lord,
You must write freedom for them
Daughters Are Also Sold
In the era of ignorance, it was heard
That they were often discarded.
Mothers would abandon them, and fathers would cast them away
To a distant place where deep wells would swallow their cries forever.
Even today, this tradition persists
In my country,
In remote, desolate regions,
Where the poison of poverty seeps through families.
When a little daughter dons a crimson dress,
She becomes invincible.
All her dreams remain tethered to her tiny feet,
But alas, her laughter never returns.
Her emotions are bartered away,
Her precious eyes lose their value,
And she herself is sold without a price.
I’m like a star
Give me the freedom to write my own story.
My tears show me the true way.
I am like a star that shines brightly to show the way.
I am like a bird that cannot be caged.
I am like the fire that burns inside all of us.
I am like the raindrop that write its own fate
I am the ray of sunshine that sets everything aglow.
I am like the fragrance that scents the entire world

Abduqahhorova Gulhayo was born in the Turakurgan district of the Namangan region. She is a 2nd year student of Philology and Uzbek language at Namangan University of Business and Science. She won first place in the Young Reader competition.
A daughter was born one day to the King of a prosperous kingdom. She was christened Malade. She was a very even-tempered and pleasant girl, and a joy for her father to behold, until one day she was afflicted with a tremor about her features. A severe juddering affected her hands and face and was found by all to be quite disquieting. In fact, she could not hold a teacup without quivering so badly that the contents were spilled. The princess was the only child of the King and Queen. Malade, of course, had a plethora of tutors and so did not have to be around others her own age; that would have caused the King severe embarrassment, as well as being humiliating for the young girl herself. One must keep up appearances, as the King well knew.
When she was six years old, Malade was given lessons in the equestrian disciplines. A young groom, older than Malade by about one year, was there, and the two young people struck up a cordial though not close relationship. This youth was called Judicieux, and he was very good at his job, and soon he was tasked with servicing all the horses that the damsel used. Judicieux was sensitive to the plight of Malade, as he was himself lame. Though she was starved for attention from children, they both recognized their proper places.
Years passed. As Malade grew into young adulthood, she was beset by the responsibilities of her position: functions of ceremony at her father’s table and in the King’s stead. But her malady never lessened; the juddering continued.
“Oh, Judicieux,” she said one day in the stables, preparing to mount her steed. “What shall I do?” I am to meet the prince from the northern kingdom. His father and the King desire that the prince and I wed and effect the joining together of our kingdoms. “What if the prince hates me?”
“He can’t help but love you, Milady,” said the groom with feeling.
“But my quivering,” she said sorrowfully. “With all the beautiful women in our two kingdoms, why would he give me even a second glance?”
“If he has but eyes to see, Milady,” he said from his heart. He then limped back into the stable.
Malade thought of Judicieux: “For a cripple, he has many beneficent qualities. He shall make some peasant girl a fine mate.” And she thought nothing more of Judicieux or her dilemma, for she was astride a horse.
“Milady,” said Inepta, watching as her mistress struggled with her palsied hands, “perhaps if you concentrate, if you tell yourself to be calm, you will not judder, and things will be alright.”
“Thank you, Inepta,” said Malade, “but in seventeen years that strategy has been to no avail.
“Yes, Milady,” murmured Inepta, looking sadly at the princess.
That night, the kingdom was astir. The king would formally announce the engagement of Malade to the prince of the neighboring kingdom. Prince Stephen was rich, handsome, powerful, and heir to his kingdom. Much was made of the festivities. It was wintertime as well, and Christmas was likewise celebrated. This was everyone’s favorite time of year. Sumptuous comestibles proliferated, and sparkling wine flowed like rivers. Everyone partook heartily of the rich food and libations, and at the summit of the evening, attention was focused on the prince and princess.
“Daughter,” intoned the King robustly, “you have before you a prince worthy of your honor.”
She looked shyly into the eyes of Prince Stephen. He returned her gaze, but his face fell.
“Great King,” said he, “I cannot marry the Princess Malade.”
“But,” the King objected. “It is all arranged.”
“That may be, but I have our mutual kingdoms to consider. What will become of us if I marry the Princess and our children are born who are as deranged as she is? How would our realms function? How would our diplomats sort it out if it were thought that the royal family was addle-minded? We would surely become a laughing stock throughout the continent.” The prince’s words pierced like a dagger the heart of the princess.
The king took a great breath and released it wearily. He knew what the prince said was conventional wisdom. He released the prince from his betrothal.
So the Princess returned to her solitary existence, seeing no one other than her lady in waiting, Inepta, and her groom, the lowly Judicieux. She continued to relish time spent among her magnificent stable of horses. Starved for companionship, Princess Malade began conversing ever more intimately with Judicieux on any number of subjects; to her great surprise, she found that he was informed, intelligent, and wise far beyond his station in life. He rivaled the courtiers, in fact, in his canniness. She began to harbor an idea. Despite the fact that Judicieux was neither rich nor handsome, nor the heir to a great throne, she was completely smitten with him.
One day Malade approached the King and inquired, “Father, shall I never marry?” The King, surprised that the Princess would want to marry after the debacle with Prince Steven, responded to his daughter.
“Why, Malade, you will never be wed to a sovereign, as you have seen, but you may of course marry—if only for companionship. And I suppose that if you have a male child, he will inherit the throne, whether he is a juddering idiot or not.”
“I have chosen my husband,” she announced excitedly. The king, with little enthusiasm, asked who it would be. “I shall wed the most intelligent, thoughtful, and wisest man in all the kingdom,” she told him. “I shall marry for love,”
“Have you only just met him?” he inquired.
“I have known him half my life,” she replied. “And the King, seeing as Malade was very old now—almost twenty—knew this to be a long time indeed.”
“If you have made your decision, word shall go out, and a wedding will be arranged,” he said, but still with scant enthusiasm. “Er… who have you chosen?” he asked.
“Judicieux, chief groom of the stables,” she told him. The King swallowed any remarks he might have had.
And so a wedding was held. All the dignitaries attended, including Prince Stephen, who had since married and was beset by a harpy of a wife. He was barely able to draw a breath, but she would criticize him for it. But she had a fertile womb, and all of her children were likewise disposed to be curmudgeons. Stephen’s kingdom was almost constantly at war due to his poor diplomatic skills. The prince looked upon Malade now with admiration, for certainly she was the most beautiful bride ever to grace this or any other castle. He had simply never noticed before.
After the wedding, Judicieux, as the husband of the King’s only daughter, sparked an interest in the king. Like his daughter, he was pleasantly surprised by the native intelligence, thoughtfulness, and wisdom of his son-in-law–and a cripple at that! And as a part of the royal family, the former groom was drawn into the diplomatic order and soon became the outstanding minister in his Majesty’s service. And as his abilities became well known, so too did Malade’s grace, manners, and loving instinct. They had many children, but one of them–like the princess and later the queen–had tremors, but the child was treated with patience, understanding, and compassion. And showered with love. After a long reign by her parents, that child, christened Empathique, served as the greatest sovereign that the kingdom ever saw.
There are moments in life that become turning points — moments that change not only our path but our entire destiny. For me, one of those moments was my decision to study at the Uzbek State University of World Languages. This choice was not just about education; it was the beginning of a journey that would define my dreams, values, and future mission.
I have always been fascinated by the world of languages. As a child, I tried to understand foreign songs and dreamed of watching movies without subtitles. For me, language is not only a tool for communication but also a bridge that connects different cultures, minds, and hearts. That is why I decided to dedicate my life to learning languages and teaching them to others.
The Uzbek State University of World Languages is not just a university — it is a place where dreams come true. Here, science and culture meet, new ideas are born, and every student discovers their inner strength. What attracted me most was that the education here is not limited to theory; it is connected with real-life practice and the modern world.
At this university, I am learning not only German but also humanity, discipline, and teamwork. Every lesson, every text opens a new world for me. Our teachers inspire us not only to learn but also to dream, to believe, and to act. Every day I feel proud to be a student here.
Studying here has changed the way I see life. I no longer see language learning as only grammar or vocabulary memorization. Language is a philosophy of life — the most powerful bridge that connects humans to the world. Through language, we don’t just speak; we think, feel, and create.
My greatest goal is to become a skilled linguist, translator, or teacher. I want young people in Uzbekistan to achieve their dreams through learning foreign languages — to explore the world and to make our nation’s voice heard globally. Because every young Uzbek has great potential within; all they need is faith and hard work.
The Uzbek State University of World Languages has given me more than knowledge — it has given me confidence. This confidence reminds me that I, too, can move forward toward my dreams. Every lesson, every challenge, every small victory is shaping me into a stronger and wiser person.
In the future, I will proudly mention this university’s name, because it showed me the way, gave me wings, and opened the door to the world. I know the road ahead will not be easy, but every step brings me closer to my dream. Because this is not just a university — it is a school of life.

International terrorism is a broad concept. It refers to a large-scale threat aimed at disrupting inter-state political and social order by carrying out terrorist acts in various countries. Emerging in the 1960s, it developed significantly toward the end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first centuries. International terrorism is a form of activity intended to inflict harm on one or several countries to achieve political or economic objectives. Its main goals are to destabilize government administration, cause economic and political damage, undermine the foundations of the social order, and violate human dignity, honor, and rights. The main characteristics of international terrorism include globalization, professionalization, and reliance on extremist ideology. To achieve their goals, terrorist organizations actively use mass media and social networks. International terrorism not only poses a threat to international legal order and political relations among states but also negatively affects the development of several countries.
The issue of combating international terrorism was first discussed at the international level in 1934 within the League of Nations. This discussion was prompted by the assassination of Yugoslav King Alexander I and French Prime Minister Louis Barthou in Marseille on October 9, 1934. At that time, the main forms of terrorism included hostage-taking, hijacking of civilian aircraft, and political assassinations. The most powerful and dangerous international terrorist organization of that era was the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), established in 1969 under the leadership of YasserArafat. In the late 1960s, the Soviet Union (USSR) recruited members of national movements worldwide who adopted terrorist tactics and trained them in special camps. After the September 11, 2001, attacks, when Al-Qaeda terrorists targeted several facilities in the United States, international terrorism grew even stronger. According to experts, more than 20,000 terrorist acts have been committed to date, resulting in hundreds of thousands of casualties and victims — most of them civilians.
Main Part
International terrorism is one of the most dangerous and serious global problems for all states. To prevent this threat, several countries have joined forces and are cooperating. Recently, a conference was held within the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), attended by representatives of SCO member states, observer countries, dialogue partners, the SCO Secretariat, and other international organizations.
During the conference, participants exchanged views on pressing issues related to countering the modern threats and dangers posed by international terrorist organizations. They shared advanced experiences in combating terrorism and extremism, emphasizing that terrorism in all its forms poses a serious threat to peace and security.
Attention was drawn to the fact that terrorist organizations are attempting to acquire new types of weapons and military equipment, geolocation and satellite communication tools, and are increasingly using unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), artificial intelligence technologies, and information and communication technologies to carry out terrorist activities. The Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist organization has shifted to a decentralized network-based operational model, leading to new threats and challenges — particularly in the Middle East and Afghanistan — where the security situation has deteriorated. It was noted with concern that international terrorist groups entrenched in Afghanistan are approaching the borders of SCO member states and that their members, upon returning to their countries of origin, are reactivating dormant extremist cells.
During the discussion, the participants also emphasized the need to strengthen international cooperation to counter the use of the Internet for terrorist purposes and to prevent the spread of extremist ideologies online. [2]
On March 3–4, 2022, an international conference titled “Regional Cooperation of Central Asian Countries within the Framework of the Joint Plan of Action for the Implementation of the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy” was held in Tashkent.
In his speech at the United Nations, the President of Uzbekistan noted that effective cooperation was being carried out to ensure security in Central Asia and acknowledged the successful implementation of the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy in the region. The President stated:
“We support holding an international conference dedicated to the ten-year results and future prospects of the Regional Joint Plan within this Strategy.”
In addition, several legislative acts have been adopted in Uzbekistan, including:
“On Combating Extremism”,
“On Combating Terrorism”,
“On Combating the Legalization of Proceeds from Crime, the Financing of Terrorism, and the Financing of the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction”, as well as other regulatory and legal documents.
At the Tashkent International Conference, the unique experience of Central Asian cooperation in implementing the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy was presented. Participants also discussed international and regional efforts to combat terrorism.
Within the “Development Strategy” of the Republic of Uzbekistan, under the 6th priority area — “Developing effective mechanisms to combat extremism and terrorism” — several measures have been implemented, including:
Improving preventive mechanisms aimed at eliminating the root causes of terrorism, enhancing the socio-spiritual environment, preventing the influence of extremist ideologies, and addressing the problems of individuals affected by such influences;
Forming a strong and stable immunity among the population, especially the youth, against terrorist and extremist ideologies;
Improving the international legal framework for combating terrorism and expanding contractual cooperation with foreign states, regional, and international organizations;
Strengthening the capacity of diplomatic missions, consular offices, the External Labor Migration Agency, and other institutions working with citizens residing abroad;
Exchanging information and experience with foreign states and international organizations in combating extremism, terrorism, and their financing;
Actively participating in the work of international and regional organizations combating extremism and terrorism;
Coordinating joint actions within the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy implementation framework in Central Asia;
Expanding Uzbekistan’s role in promoting international initiatives aimed at enhancing information exchange and cooperation in counterterrorism across Central Asia;
Intensifying international efforts to ensure peace and stability in Afghanistan, and involving the country in regional cooperation processes, including counterterrorism initiatives.
Uzbekistan supports the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and has ratified 14 international conventions and protocols related to countering terrorism and religious extremism. [4]
Conclusion
In conclusion, terrorism today negatively affects sustainable development and the well-being of many countries worldwide. Its impact can be observed in political, economic, and social spheres. A state that is not peaceful and stable can never achieve development in any area. To eliminate this threat, countries are joining forces and assisting one another in this common struggle. For example, the international community, together with Uzbekistan, is actively helping the people of Afghanistan, and Uzbekistan plays a significant role in these humanitarian and peace-support operations.
