U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in Uzbekistan to promote trade and ties with Central Asia, ABC News reports.
PBS NewsHour describes the trip as a tour meant to strengthen U.S. economic and security ties with Central and South Asia.
PBS also reports that the tour has only tangential links to the Trump administration's main foreign policy problems: the Middle East and the Russia-Ukraine war. It says some observers wonder whether Rubio is keeping those pressing matters at a distance.
