DUSHANBE. June 4. “Asia-Plus” -- At least 15-20 women gathered this morning at the doors of Uzbekistan’s embassy in Dushanbe demanding that government of the neighboring country resumes transit of rail wagons to Tajikistan.

The protesters handed their letter to representative of the embassy addressed to Uzbekistan President Islam Karimov in which they urge Uzbek leader to improve relations with Tajikistan, Uzbek embassy in Tajikistan told the AP.

“We consider this move a provocation aimed at deterioration of relations between the two sovereign states,” the embassy has said.
