President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, speaking at the plenary session of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly, proposed the creation of a Security Conference in Central Asia, the State Information Agency TDH reports.
The head of state noted that in order to achieve universal and comprehensive security, Turkmenistan proceeds from the need to give the activities of the UN a distinct regional context.
According to the President of Turkmenistan, this approach is designed to bring proper specificity to joint work and increase its functionality and efficiency.
The head of state expressed his conviction that the time has come to launch an inclusive, full-format and systemic dialogue between Central Asia and the UN, and Ashgabat respectfully invites partners to its start.
“In this regard, our country is taking the initiative to create, under the auspices of the UN, the format of the Security Conference in Central Asia and adjacent zones,” said President Serdar Berdimuhamedov.
According to the head of state, the goal of the Meeting is to develop approaches and solutions aimed at bringing together and synchronizing the efforts of the countries of Central Asia and the world community, international organizations, financial and economic institutions in ensuring sustainable, conflict-free development of this region.
“We express our readiness to hold the first Meeting in Ashgabat in 2024,” the President of Turkmenistan emphasized.
