ASPS Conference. It was a pleasure to meet scholars and friends, learning from them and presenting my work. Thanks to the ASPS conference organisers specially our dear Robert Haug.

It was a pleasure meeting scholars at Mir Alishir Navayi's symposium.
I received an award from His Excellency the President of Uzbekistan, presented to me by Mr. Normat Tursonov, the governor of Navoi Region.
Navayi reconnected the Turko-Persian world once more.
