Ideology and policy

The Uzbekistan National Revival Democratic Party was formed in 1995 with a largely intellectual membership and has a comparatively high proportion of female members.[2] The party advocates a strong sense of Uzbek culture, desiring a cultural revival, whilst also seeking to build closer links with other states in Central Asia.[3] The party opposes the influence of Russia in the region and attacked the foundation of the Eurasian Economic Community on this basis.[4]

At the last legislative elections, 24 December 2004 and 9 January 2005, the party won 11 out of 120 seats. The party's candidate for the 2007 Presidential election was Hurshid Dustmuhammad.[5]
