Biography


Islam Abduganievich Karimov is a Soviet and Uzbek politician, head of Uzbekistan since 1989, one of the two permanent presidents of post-Soviet states, along with Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Islam was born at the end of January 1938 in the family of an employee Abdugani Karimov. The boy's childhood was not easy. When Islam was three years old, the parents placed the baby in an orphanage for several months. But in 1945 Karimov returned to the orphanage again. Apparently, it became difficult for parents to support a large family: Islam had six brothers and one sister.

After receiving a certificate of maturity, the young man enters the Central Asian Polytechnic Institute, located in Tashkent, where he receives the specialty of a mechanical engineer.

Politics


In 1960, the future president of the country in the position of assistant foreman begins to work at the Tashselmash plant. Gradually, he rose to the rank of a leading engineer in the USSR at the Valery Chkalov Aviation Association, and later got into the Ministry of Water Resources of the Uzbek SSR.

In order for the education to correspond to the position held, Islam Abduganievich received a second higher education at the Tashkent Institute of National Economy. This time he did not limit himself to one diploma of a specialist and defended his candidate's minimum, becoming a candidate of economic sciences.

Karimov gradually moved up the career ladder. After the Ministry of Water Transport, he was responsible for the finance of Uzbekistan as the minister, and later became the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the republic. This post after the collapse of the Soviet Union allowed an ambitious man to become the head of the newly formed state.

Initially, Islam Karimov urged his compatriots to vote in a referendum for the preservation of the USSR. And the inhabitants of Uzbekistan obeyed their leader - 93% of people did not want to part with the Soviet Union. However, 10 days after the putsch, Karimov was the first Central Asian politician to declare the independence of his republic.

The rule of Islam Abduganievich cannot be called calm. During the 90s, the opposition intensified, there were many terrorist attacks, especially at the hands of the Islamists, the Fergana Valley suffered. The president had to take tough measures to restore order in the country. Often, Islam Karimov personally traveled to local hot spots to negotiate with the invaders. As a result, the Islamists left Uzbekistan completely, but some remained underground.

Initially, for the sake of maintaining peace on the border with Tajikistan and preventing the threat from Afghanistan, Islam Karimov provided the territory of Uzbekistan to US military bases. The President of the Republic diplomatically bypassed the issue of tense relations between Russia and America, competently building a policy of interaction with each power.

In 2005, Islam Karimov had to suppress the uprisings that broke out in the country by force. Anticipating a scenario for the development of the Orange Revolution, the president refused the United States to further deploy military bases and entered into an agreement with the Russian Ministry of Defense for military support from Russia. Soon, Uzbekistan joined the Eurasian Economic Community, finally taking a course towards rapprochement with the Russian Federation.

Karimov's opponents argue that the life of the people has not changed for the better during his leadership. Nevertheless, in each election campaign, the incumbent remained in office, and never received less than 90% of the vote. He was last re-elected at the end of March 2015.

During his reign, Islam Karimov published a number of books, most of which were published in the 90s. First of all, the works “Uzbekistan: its own path of renewal and progress”, “Motherland is sacred for everyone”, “Ideology is the uniting flag of a nation, society, state” appeared.

Since the president was a supporter of national development, he considered the experience of communicating with the Russian Empire, and then being part of the USSR, as negative for the Uzbek people. Basmachi, acting against the power of the Reds, Karimov called the liberators of the homeland. Already in the first years of the reign of Islam Abduganievich in Uzbekistan, the Russian language gradually disappeared from everyday life, only representatives of the Uzbek nation were appointed to leading posts.

Personal life


Islam Karimov has been married twice. The young man met his first wife Natalia Kuchmi immediately after graduation. The marriage was short-lived, although it presented Islam Abduganievich with an heir. Initially, the son was given the name Rustam, but after the divorce, the mother changed the documents and renamed the child Petra, in honor of her father. In the official biography, Islam Karimov never reported on the first family, not even joint photos have survived.

Soon Karimov married a second time. This time Tatyana Akbarovna, a graduate of the Faculty of Economics, became his wife. In this family, two daughters were born - Gulnara and Lola. Both received education in the field of international relations, worked in diplomatic positions. Thanks to his daughters, Islam Abduganievich has five grandchildren.

True, the sisters do not communicate with each other for a long time, since, according to Lola, they are completely different people, looking at the same things from the opposite point of view, and they simply have nothing to talk about. By the way, according to information from some Uzbek media outlets, in 2014, her father removed Gulnara from a prestigious post, since she was seen in corruption, and placed her under house arrest.

Health status


Since 2010, the health of the President of Uzbekistan has left much to be desired. In 2013, Islam Abduganievich had a heart attack, but the politician quickly recovered. At the end of August 2016, Karimov, suffering from a number of chronic diseases, suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was hospitalized in the best hospital in the country. At that time, the severity of the attack was not reported, but the possibility of Islam Abduganievich's presence at the anniversary celebration of Independence Day, which is held on September 1, was questioned.

Death


On September 2 at 18:15 Moscow time, President of Uzbekistan Islam Karimov died of cardiac arrest. The official medical report on Karimov's death indicated that the permanent Uzbek leader suffered a stroke on August 27, after which he fell into an atonic coma and was connected to a ventilator.

After the cardiac arrest of Karimov, doctors urgently conducted intensive therapy for him, but it did not work - the biological death of the Uzbek head was recorded at 20:55 local time (18:55 Moscow time).

It is known that leading doctors of Tashkent and neurosurgeons from Monaco, Finland and Germany fought for Karimov's life. Also, Russian neurosurgeons participated in the treatment of the President of Uzbekistan.

The funeral of Islam Karimov was held in the homeland of the politician, in Samarkand, on September 3. He was buried next to his mother and brothers near the Khazret-Khyzr architectural complex in the country's historical cemetery.

Delegations from 17 countries arrived at the farewell ceremony for Karimov. Tens of thousands of townspeople also took to the streets of the city, who, without hiding their tears, grieved over the death of the country's permanent leader.

By the date of the first anniversary of the death of the first president, a monument to Islam Karimov was officially opened in Tashkent. The site in front of the former residence "Aksaray" was chosen as the site for the installation of the monument, in which a charitable foundation and a scientific and educational museum named after Islam Karimov also appeared. September 2 in Uzbekistan became the official day of memory of the first president of Uzbekistan.

At the end of January 2018, the grand opening of the mausoleum of Islam Karimov took place at the site of his grave.
