This study explores the role of English in Uzbekistan as a tool of cultural diplomacy during the post-Sovietperiod. Following independence, Uzbekistan adopted English as a strategic resource to shape its image on the internationalstage and to foster global integration. Using a qualitative research approach, the study analyzed documents from theMinistry of Education of Uzbekistan, reports from international organizations, and content from media and social networks.The findings reveal that English serves as a significant bridge in Uzbekistan’s educational system, international cooperation,and cultural engagement, contributing to the enhancement of the country’s global image. However, the growingpresence of English also calls for a careful balance between promoting national identity and preserving local languages.The results of this study offer practical guidance for developing Uzbekistan’s language policy and cultural diplomacy strategies.Moreover, they provide a basis for comparative analysis for other post-Soviet states. The study underscores thestrategic importance of English in strengthening Uzbekistan’s global position and presents recommendations for futurepolicy reforms.
