Dear Leaders of the European Union and the United States of America!
Throughout the post-Soviet periodUzbekistan has not stopped the practice of large-scale forced mobilization of school children, students, employees of enterprises, government agencies and public sector workers to harvest cotton. Under orders from the central government executed by the district and provincial authorities, an estimated two million school children and adults are mobilized every autumn for two months to harvest the cotton. School children and academic year is interrupted, and they work in the cotton fields with no days off for months under severe conditions. Adults follow orders under intimidation.
