The article discusses the official status and sphere of Russian language usage in the Republic of Uzbekistan. The article reveals the idea that the policy of strengthening the state language in modern Uzbekistan is associated with the adaptation of the late Soviet model of the nation state, in which language was one of the most important markers of the nation. It is proved that the Russian language is one of the rooted languages of the republic. According to the materials of field research, the indigenous population has formed a demand for Uzbek-Russian bilingualism, including the acquisition of the language through school education in Russian. The author concludes that the Russian language is a part of modern Uzbek culture.
