Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov at a meeting in the SCO+ format in Astana noted that Turkmenistan fully shares the fundamental principles underlying the activities of the SCO – peace, mutual respect, equality, cooperation, reports TDH.
As the National Leader of the Turkmen people noted, Ashgabat has been promoting the initiative of dialogue as a guarantee of peace in the international arena for a number of years, which is fully consistent with the theme of the current Summit. Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov noted that this is a good prerequisite for starting substantive joint work at the UN and other authoritative multilateral structures.
“As you know, at the initiative of Turkmenistan, 2025 was declared by the United Nations as the “International Year of Peace and Trust.” This is recorded in the relevant resolution of the General Assembly, which provides political and legal grounds for the full involvement of our states in the process of consultations and negotiations at the UN in order to develop common approaches and a consolidated position on the peace and peacekeeping agenda,” said the Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan.
In the same context, the National Leader of the Turkmen people proposed discussing with the SCO the possibility of supporting Turkmenistan’s initiative on the formation of a Global Security Strategy put forward by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov last September at the plenary meeting of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly.
