Last week, a meeting was held in Kabul between the acting Minister of Mines and Petroleum of Afghanistan, Hidayatullah Badri, and the CEO of TAPI Pipeline Company Limited, Muhammetmurad Amanov, the Turkmen news website “Orient” reports.
The parties discussed the latest achievements of the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) gas pipeline project and issues related to accelerating the remaining work. Particular attention was paid to creating new jobs for Afghans and improving the skills of Afghan engineers involved in the project.

This underlines the importance of the project for Turkmenistan and its desire for further implementation.
