Turkmenistan calls on Turkic countries for coordinated diplomacy in energy and transport

President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov called on the Turkic-speaking states for implementing coordinated diplomacy in the spheres of energy and transport.

Speaking at the VIII Summit of the Turkic Council or the Cooperation Council of Turkic Speaking States, the President of Turkmenistan noted that our country considered the systematic and purposeful strengthening of economic and trade relations as a priority vector of cooperation. According to the Turkmen leader it is, first of all, related to such strategic areas as energy and transport.

According to the President of Turkmenistan the Turkic-speaking states form a “natural belt” in the Eurasian space, which will connect Asia and Europe through reliable and stable transport and energy infrastructures. The Turkmen leader noted that our countries could play a key role in their creation. This is the shortest, most reliable and safe way for the supply of energy resources, goods and services to the largest markets in Asia, Europe and the Middle East along the East-West and North-South routes.

The president of Turkmenistan emphasized the creation of energy systems - the Caspian region-Turkey-Europe, as well as transport and logistics corridors designed to revive the Great Silk Road among the important projects.

The President of Turkmenistan underlined the importance of intensifying cooperation and creating a unified strategy of the Turkic-speaking states in this direction, and on the basis of this carrying out coordinated transport and energy diplomacy.
