Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and UN Secretary-General Hold Talks in Ashgabat

Today in the afternoon, the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov met with the United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres at the Arkadag Hotel in the capital.

During the negotiations, held in both narrow and expanded formats with delegations from both sides, it was noted that the fruitfulness and effectiveness of cooperation are largely due to mutual understanding and alignment of strategic goals between Turkmenistan and the UN, as well as shared interests in striving for peace, justice, development and respect for the rights of states and peoples as the foundation of international relations.

In this context, close and multifaceted cooperation with the United Nations remains a strategic priority for Turkmenistan.

For Turkmenistan, the UN is the only universal and legitimate organization that our country considers as the supporting pillar of the modern system of global interaction, a guarantor of preserving and maintaining peace and balance of interests in the world arena, and the sustainability of the security architecture.
