A constitutional referendum was held in Uzbekistan on 30 April 2023. [1] It was to be held on proposed constitutional amendments. [2]
Parliament approved the referendum on 15 March 2023. [3] The amendments were accepted in the referendum with over 90% in support. [4] [5] [6]
President Shavkat Mirziyoyev was re-elected in 2021 for a second term in elections which were noted for a lack of competition. However, he is ineligible to run for the office in 2026, in accordance with the current constitution, since it limits presidents to two terms of five years each.
The Constitutional Court ruled that if the proposed constitutional amendments are approved by the voters, incumbent president Mirziyoyev would be able to seek a third term. [7] Observers have criticised the referendum for including provisions that may allow Mirziyoyev to claim a third or even a fourth term in the future, with many being concerned about the path of the country's reforms and if the "Uzbek thaw" under Mirziyoyev will continue. It is also the seventh time that the Uzbek constitution has been altered significantly since 1992, following earlier attempts to zero out previous terms and evade term limits. The state, symbolically, tries to frame the Uzbekistani people as the main author of this constitutional proposal. [8]
Voters were asked whether they approved of a proposed constitutional act that would revise the current constitution. [9] The official text of the referendum reads:
Siz O‘zbekiston Respublikasi Konstitutsiyasi to‘g‘risidagi O‘zbekiston Respublikasi Konstitutsiyaviy Qonunini qabul qilasizmi? [10]
English: Do you accept the Constitutional Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan on the Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan?
