Uzbekistan condemns this attack in the strongest possible terms and hopes that it once again shows the international community that terrorism from groups claiming to be Muslim is the scourge of our time. Uzbekistan also hopes that countries that are not regularly on the receiving side of such attacks finally realize the reason countries like Uzbekistan and Egypt must delay the introduction of certain reforms in order to prevent the Wahhabi plague from spreading.

When Islamist groups set up headquarters in your country and prey on the misfortunes of your country's youths (which are not possible to solve in the near future), steps must be taken to ensure the security and preserve the culture of the nation instead of adhering to abstract principles that might result in another Taliban regime.
That doesn't answer the question. Does Uzbekistan feel that democracy, regarded by some countries as too important to be abandoned, is in fact expendable?

Democracy means acting in the interest of the people. If the people can best be served by keeping dangerous groups that seek to destroy stability and spark off violence from being able to nicely present their platform every four years, then that's the form of democracy Uzbekistan will pursue.
The Uzbek delegate's logic is flawless. I accept the point.
