Best Answer

Islam Abdug'aniyevich Karimov was the president of Uzbekistan in 2008.

Islam Karimov became the first president of Uzbekistan on 1990 March 24. After declaring Uzbekistan's independence on 1991 August 31, he won a disputed election on Dec 29 of that year. He extended his presidency through a referendum in 1995 and presidential elections in 2000 and 2007, all of which have been criticized as unfair and rigged by the international community. The Uzbekistan constitution now limits a president to two consecutive terms (of 7 years), so barring any changes, Karimov will end his presidency in early 2015.
