Our Ref.: 01-8/2190

Dear Sir,

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to examine the draft Memorandum of Understanding to facilitate the free circulation of global mobile personal communications by satellite user terminals (GMPCS MoU).

After studying the draft MoU, we have the following additions to propose in order to improve the content of the document:

1) Article 2 - Add the following sentence at the end: "Licensing conditions shall be specified by the Parties and adopted as an arrangement between them".

2) Article 4 - Add the following sentence at the end: "Terminals brought into a country shall comply with the licensing conditions adopted under the arrangement between the Parties".

I hope that representatives of the Republic of Uzbekistan will be able to participate in the discussion and adoption of the Memorandum of Understanding to facilitate the free circulation of global mobile personal communications by satellite user terminals (GMPCS MoU).

Yours faithfully,

A.K. DZHURAVAEV
Minister
