President of Turkmenistan, Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces General of the Army Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov chaired a meeting of the State Sectary Council which was held in the conference hall of the Main Civil Defence and Rescue Operations Department of the Ministry of Defence. The agendas focused on the work done by the military and law enforcement agencies for ten months of the current year and a number of organizational issues.
Opening the meeting, the Turkmen leader thanked the high-ranking officials present for the high level of organisation of the celebrations in honour of the 20th anniversary of independence of Turkmenistan. Highly evaluating the military parade, at which all corps of the national army were represented, President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov emphasized that though the state paid significant attention to modernizing and enhancing the defence capacity of the Armed Forces, sovereign Turkmenistan had been and would be always committed to its status of neutrality which stood as an essential factor for maintaining peace and stability in the Central Asian region.
Best evidence for the peace-building foreign policy strategy of Turkmenistan was the important international initiatives that it put forward to address urgent problems facing mankind today and maintain peace and stability on the planet. The Military Doctrine of Turkmenistan, which is purely defensive in nature, is absolutely consistent with its policy of peacefulness and good neighbourliness and welcomed and supported by the community of nations. This fact determines the character of the tasks assigned to the military and law enforcement agencies of the country.
