The present event once again confirms the comprehensive approach demonstrated at the state level to the preparation and holding of significant celebrations in the life of the country and society.Among the main events of this year, which will be inscribed in the glorious chronicle of the Turkmen people, is the 35th anniversary of the sacred independence of our Fatherland. Events marking the upcoming significant date cover all corners of our Homeland.Forum participants viewed an exhibition of decorative and applied art, museum treasures, and works by artists and sculptors dedicated to Akhal-Teke horses, set up in the foyer of the Mukams Palace. A separate place here is devoted to the remarkable works of the Head of State, as well as of the National Leader of the Turkmen people Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov. As is known, among the works of the Hero-Arkadag are many that recount in detail the history of the magnificent Akhal-Tekes and describe the amazing features of this breed.As was noted, the present review of works of art and the materials presented on the role of national values, which have become a contribution to universal culture, allow for obtaining more detailed information about the exemplary principles and heritage of the Turkmen people.Next, at the Mukams Palace of the State Cultural Center of Turkmenistan, a ceremonial forum began work, dedicated to the festive events forthcoming in 2026, declared «Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of the Purposeful Winged Horses» and marked by the 35th anniversary of the country's sacred independence. A separate place in its agenda is devoted to speeches concerning the popularization and increasing of the fame of the renowned Akhal-Teke horses around the world.The speakers noted the growing worldwide popularity of the Akhal-Tekes thanks to the large-scale reforms being carried out in the country aimed at developing domestic horse breeding. As was emphasized, these reforms, initiated by the Hero-Arkadag – a true connoisseur and admirer of magnificent horses – are today being successfully implemented under the leadership of the Arkadagly Hero-Serdar. The results of the steps being taken in this field fully attest to the increasing worldwide fame of the «paradise» horses, known since time immemorial. Our «paradise» horses, elegant carpets, faithful Alabaý dogs, and other treasures are the national heritage created by Turkmens throughout history and passed down to our days. The state policy, laid down by the National Leader of the Turkmen people Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and now successfully continued under the leadership of the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, rests on the noble principles of our people.As is known, the approval by the corresponding Resolution of the President of Turkmenistan of the Program of Horse-Breeding and Equestrian Sport Events for 2026, declared «Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of the Purposeful Winged Horses», further increases the significance of the present notable year.The wide scale of the Independence Day celebration requires coordinated work starting now. Making a worthy contribution to the organization of these events at a high level is the most important task and a great duty of each of us. We say: «Our horses are a model of perfection, a standard of beauty». Therefore, works dedicated to the «paradise» horses must be impeccable. Independence is the foundation of statehood. Every deed of ours connected with the independence celebration, and every work of art we create, must correspond to a high standard.As was noted, the National Leader of the Turkmen people Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov place enormous trust in each of us. Inspired by this, we must take part in the celebrations held in our peaceful and prosperous state; this is a great honor for us.It should be emphasized that Akhal-Teke horses, possessing truly amazing qualities, have always been the main adornment of popular festivities. Thus, horse races are an attribute of national celebrations. It should be noted that horses of this unique breed are an outstanding contribution by Turkmens to the cultural treasury of humanity. And that is why truly grand work is being carried out today to revive the former glory of the «winged» horses. In this endeavor, the achievements of our jockeys at prestigious equestrian competitions and international-level shows are notable.Mention should also be made of the successes of the National Equestrian Games Group «Galkynyş», created on the initiative and through the efforts of the Hero-Arkadag. The performances of this ensemble at international events receive enormous recognition. Thus, its achievements, including prize-winning places, fully attest to the development of national equestrian sport and equestrian circus art.The significance of the present forum was further enhanced by videos shown, dedicated to the celebrated Akhal-Tekes and to bright moments from the celebrations marking the National Holiday of the Turkmen Horse, revealing the importance of the events of the holiday in honor of the magnificent horses, marked in April 2016.As shown in the videos, the Hero-Arkadag, having mounted a dun-colored horse named Miras, presented to him on the occasion of the holiday on behalf of the country's horse breeders, inspected the national traditions and customs being performed at the erected yurts.The colorful atmosphere of the celebration organized then was also enhanced by the wedding ceremony of members of the National Equestrian Games Group «Galkynyş». This event testified to the fact that significant holidays follow one another in Turkmen society. Among the people it is believed that a wedding is the most important event in everyone's life, and this truth was reflected in the celebrations that unfolded in April 2016. In accordance with a noble tradition, happiness was wished to the bride. Giving a daughter in marriage and marrying off a son are considered the most pleasant moments in a person's life. Those gathered wished success to the large-scale celebrations, and happiness, unity, and prosperity to every family.The family foundations of the Turkmen people hold deep sacred meaning. They serve as that invisible bridge connecting generations, filling the way of life with a special spirituality and harmony. The atmosphere of the celebration itself was imbued with sincere joy and merriment. One of the vivid attributes of Turkmen weddings is, of course, the wedding procession. On the whole, in wedding traditions and rites, the wise precepts of ancestors, passed down to us through the centuries, find new expression. Thus, in the present happy era, these traditions are not simply preserved but receive a worthy continuation in the spirit of modernity. All this testifies to the importance attached at the state level to maintaining continuity and developing national customs, reflected today in national holidays and celebrations. As is known from history, the Turkmen people created many wedding rites intended to help newlyweds live in happiness and harmony. All this testifies that wedding traditions hold special significance.In those unforgettable minutes, the Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan again addressed the newlyweds with warm words of guidance, wishing them a happy life. Thus, in the renowned the National Equestrian Games Group «Galkynyş», yet another family was formed.The parents of the newlyweds expressed sincere gratitude to those gathered, particularly noting that the happiness of their families is inseparably linked with Turkmen steeds, and wished the young couple to find their happiness in their chosen profession. All this, becoming yet another confirmation of the harmonious combination of Turkmen weddings with good traditions, enhanced the atmosphere of joy and merriment. Thus, the celebrations characteristic of Turkmen weddings are held on a grand scale.The ceremonial forum continued with speeches about the upcoming festive events of the year «Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of the Purposeful Winged Horses», aimed at enhancing the fame of the Akhal-Teke horses and popularizing the national art of horse breeding. It was noted in them that during the current year a whole series of large-scale events is being held to popularize the Akhal-Teke horses around the world – a genuine treasure of the people, nurtured by Turkmen horse trainers.As was noted, our equestrian sports teams take an active part in international festivals, shows, and beauty contests held both in Turkmenistan and abroad, where they demonstrate a high level of skill. During visits to the USA, the People's Republic of China, Great Britain, and the Republic of Tatarstan (Russian Federation), the Hero-Arkadag held meetings with horse breeders and specialists in the field, devoted to the art of horse breeding. Such active work serves as clear confirmation of the special attention that the National Leader of the Turkmen people consistently devotes to the development of national equestrian sport. In this connection, particular note was made of the National Leader of the Turkmen people's participation in the celebrations on the occasion of the equestrian show at Windsor Castle. Within the framework of this prestigious event, held under the patronage of the British royal family, a meeting took place between the Hero-Arkadag and King Charles III. The parties discussed prospects for bilateral cooperation.At the same time, it is gratifying to note that the National Equestrian Games Group «Galkynyş» constantly takes part in international competitions and wins prize-winning places. Members of the Group worthily represented Turkmen national equestrian art in Azerbaijan and Republic of Türkiýe. The triumphant performances of the Group added to the series of achievements consonant with this year's motto, enriching its content.Participants of the ceremonial forum also emphasized the comprehensive approach of the country's cultural and artistic workers to the issues of popularizing the legendary Akhal-Teke horses and creating works dedicated to the traditions of national horse breeding. This is a clear result of the efforts of creative figures to promote on the international stage the priceless national treasure given to the world by the Turkmen people.As was noted, throughout history the Akhal-Teke horses have consistently been the main theme of the works of poets and the musical compositions of bagshy. The traditions of the artistic embodiment of the image of the Akhal-Tekes, serving as a connecting link between eras and generations, are being successfully continued in the modern era as well. Thus, the nationwide love and pride for the Akhal-Teke horses find their reflection in works of art.In the song and music performances that were heard, imbued with a lofty spirit, the magnificent Akhal-Tekes were glorified. Popularizing the enormous contribution of our glorious ancestors to world culture is one of the important tasks facing masters of the arts. In this connection, on the eve of the celebration of the 35th anniversary of sacred independence, works of art extolling the Akhal-Teke horses supplement the content of the festive events. The performances of the masters of the arts rang out as a hymn to the beauty of the Akhal-Tekes, which occupy an important place in the history of our country and people, to the grand activity of the Hero-Arkadag and Arkadagly Hero Serdar in this field, and to the prosperous life in the present happy era.To this day, the world fame of our «paradise» horses, embodying a wonderful example of beauty and swiftness and having become a national pride, continues to grow steadily. In the new city, erected on the initiative and with the assistance of the National Leader of the Turkmen people, an International Academy of Horse Breeding named after Aba Annayev, the State Equestrian Circus named after Görogly, and the Scientific and Production Center of Horse Breeding are operating. Such a comprehensive facility opens wide opportunities for studying the traditions of national horse breeding and mastering advanced world experience in the relevant fields.As the President of Turkmenistan and the Hero-Arkadag emphasize, providing all sectors with qualified personnel is defined among the most important tasks of the present day. At the same time, great importance is attached at the state level to developing targeted international cooperation and to a deep study of the achievements of modern science in this field. All this contributes to the development of the traditions of national horse breeding and equestrian sport.As is known from historical data, magnificent Turkmen steeds, achieving high results in various types of equestrian sport, have written remarkable pages in the history of world horse breeding. Among these one can note such horses as Arab, Absent, Polatly, Garlawaç, Arab II, as well as Tarlan, who won a race over a distance of 500 kilometers.In this connection, great importance was emphasized as being attached to the organizational level of the events marking the significant date – the 35th anniversary of our great independence in the year «Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – the Homeland of the Purposeful Winged Horses». Such a comprehensive approach will ensure that the festive celebrations are held at a level corresponding to the spirit of modernity.During the ceremonial forum it was also noted that works from the pen of the Hero-Arkadag, such as «The Akhal-Teke – Our Pride and Glory» and «The Horse – A Symbol of Fidelity and Happiness», are recognized as a valuable contribution to the wide popularization around the world of the national traditions of horse breeding and to conveying them to the younger generation. This is one of the important directions of social development in the new historical era.In the speeches devoted to the ceremonial events aimed at popularizing the «winged» horses, national culture, and traditions, it was noted that in the modern era, guided by the instructions of the National Leader of the Turkmen people Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov, the necessary efforts are being made to develop our national culture, art, and literature. As was emphasized, along with specialized structures, improving the work of the mass media is of great importance in promoting the creative potential of our Homeland. At the same time, note was made of the deep meaning of the words of the Hero-Arkadag: love for horses is one of the glorious pages of Turkmen culture.In the modern era, our country is recognized as a center for the regular holding of international cultural events, conferences, exhibitions, and film festivals. This opens wide opportunities for raising the authority of independent neutral Turkmenistan on the international stage. Figures of culture and art, making a worthy contribution to enriching the spiritual world of our people, pay special attention to holding large-scale celebrations at a high organizational level and to the proper preparation of the cultural program of the festivities.Note was also made of the significance of the videos shown during the forum, revealing bright moments of the celebration of the National Holiday of the Turkmen Horse. The historical fate and way of life of our people are inseparably linked with horses. The deep meaning lies in the fact that these noble traditions are worthily continued thanks to the efforts of the grateful generation of the happy era. The traditions of horse breeding and the art of horse training are a priceless treasure that the Turkmen people have contributed to the treasury of world culture. This fact enhances the world fame and honor of a people who treat their work and profession with special devotion.As is known, valuable finds discovered at the historical sites of Jeýtun, Änew, Altyndepe, Nusaý, Margiana, and others testify that the history of the Akhal-Teke horses goes back thousands of years. In this connection, in the modern era, figures of culture and art of our country, sparing no effort or talent, make a great contribution to enhancing the world fame of the Akhal-Tekes.Then the ceremonial forum at the Mukams Palace of the State Cultural Center of Turkmenistan continued with musical performances by masters of the arts. Bright and inspired songs and melodies performed by well-known pop stars and bakhshi musicians gave the event a special festive atmosphere. In the performances of the masters of the arts, who are making every effort to worthily mark the 35th anniversary of sacred independence by creating new works, the great goals being realized in the country and the values given by the Turkmen people to the world were glorified.The culmination of the ceremonial forum was the joint performance by artists, musicians, and young soloists of a song created by the Hero-Arkadag, dedicated to moving forward together for their native land, Turkmenistan.
