Keywords:
Russian-language instruction, Uzbek-language instruction, Uzbek, Russian, EnglishAbstract
The parents who desire their children to go to Russian-only instruction classes in any educational settings have been on the increase recently. After becoming independent states, countries in Central Asia established their laws to protect their languages and promote their use in all aspects of life. This has led to the increase of the Uzbek language influence in the society, internal and international affairs of the country. Over time, life experience, challenges showed that the status of Russian cannot be undervalued. The language is wide-spread in all spheres of life: politics, education, economics, international affairs, medicine, etc. In the last decade, the role of Russian has been huge in an internal and international arena. It is no way to devalue the Russian language in Uzbekistan since it has a vital historical and cultural integrity with Central Asian counties.
