''US-Uzbekistan ties against Afghani backdrop''

............"But now that the United States has indeed temporarily waived the ban on providing military assistance to Uzbekistan, primarily because of the country’s crucial role in transit of supplies to forces in Afghanistan through the Northern distribution network. Washington banned military aid to Tashkent in 2003 amid concern over human rights abuses. Now that ban has been officially listed as of January 18, but it concerned supplying the Uzbek government with non-lethal items such as night vision goggles and GPS systems, that sort of things."
