Claim types Fact · Interpretation
Statistics Agency under the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, SIAT open data, 'Volume of gross domestic (regional) product' (sdmx_data_1299), current prices, billion soums, read from the agency's SIAT API via the progrss vault. Navoi: 11,191.5 (2015), 42,400.1 (2019), 78,668.2 (2022), 93,651.5 (2023), 130,439.5 (2024), 167,964.6 (2025). Uzbekistan total: 250,544.6 (2015), 1,849,650 (2025). Shares are each region's GRP divided by the national GDP (progrss calculation); the 14 regions sum to 86% of national GDP in both years (the rest is not allocated to regions). Navoi's share: 4.47% (2015), 6.84% (2019), 7.55% (2022), 7.42% (2023), 8.50% (2024), 9.08% (2025). Ranks are among all 14 regions (12 regions, Tashkent city and Karakalpakstan). Current prices: inflation and changing gold and metal prices are in these numbers, so only shares and ranks within the country are compared. Navoi is home to large gold, uranium and chemical industries (context, not shown in the data); the link to metal prices in takeaway 3 is an interpretation. 2025 figures may be preliminary. A live re-read of the SIAT file failed this run; the figures come from the agency's own API file via the vault.
