I wonder how much notice TB takes.
The US certainly has influence, regardelss. They can't dictate policies,

Hi folks,
I am planning a trip to Tashkent this november. My friends tell me
that Uzbekistan being new to the EU, they haven't started using the
euro currency yet. Is this true? Do I need to bring euros or the local
uzbeki currency?

Or if your ATM card has a Cyrillic alphabet font.
You can use Euros at most of the opium shops, but
I heard of at least one near the Afghani border
that only takes the Uzbek som.
