22 апреля завершился дружественный визит Национального Лидера туркменского народа, Председателя Халк Маслахаты Туркменистана Героя-Аркадага Гурбангулы Бердымухамедова в Республику Казахстан.

Во второй день визита состоялась встреча Председателя Халк Маслахаты Туркменистана Гурбангулы Бердымухамедова с Президентом Республики Казахстан Касым-Жомартом Токаевым, которая прошла при участии членов делегаций обеих стран.

В ходе встречи Президент Касым-Жомарт Токаев поздравил Героя-Аркадага с началом Международного года мира и доверия, подчеркнув, что Казахстан с большим энтузиазмом поддержал эту личную инициативу Национального Лидера туркменского народа. Он также подчеркнул, что с удовольствием принял приглашение Героя Аркадага принять участие в Международном форуме, посвящённом Международному году мира и доверия и предстоящем 12 декабря в Ашхабаде.

Президент Касым-Жомарт Токаев выразил Герою-Аркадагу и Аркадаглы Герою Сердару признательность за открытие в Ашхабаде памятников выдающимся казахским творческим деятелям &ndash; Курмангазы и Абаю.

Поблагодарив за добрые слова, Герой-Аркадаг выразил Президенту Касым-Жомарту Токаеву глубокую признательность за оказанные радушный приём и гостеприимство, созданные благоприятные условия для пребывания делегации Туркменистана в древнем городе Туркестане.

Пользуясь представившейся возможностью, Национальный Лидер туркменского народа также передал главе Республики Казахстан тёплые слова приветствия и наилучшие пожелания от Президента Туркменистана Сердара Бердымухамедова.

Гурбангулы Бердымухамедов поблагодарил Президента Касым-Жомарта Токаева за подтверждение своего участия в Международном форуме, посвящённом Международному году мира и доверия, а также 30-летию постоянного нейтралитета Туркменистана, который состоится 12 декабря в Ашхабаде.

В числе приоритетных векторов партнёрства также обозначена область энергетики. Как отметил Национальный Лидер туркменского народа, летом прошлого года в Астане на принципиальном уровне были достигнуты договорённости о проведении совместной работы в нефтегазовой сфере. Значимым шагом в их претворении в жизнь стало подписание в ходе визита Президента Республики Казахстан в Ашхабад в октябре 2024 года ряда документов между крупными профильными структурами двух стран. Подтвердив готовность Туркменистана к их практической реализации, Герой-Аркадаг высказался о необходимости дать соответствующие поручения совместной рабочей группе, созданной в целях координации деятельности по продвижению проекта освоения очередной фазы газового месторождения &laquo;Galkynyş&raquo; и поставок туркменского природного газа в Казахстан.

В этой связи Герой-Аркадаг высказался за создание новых форм сотрудничества, в том числе посредством учреждения совместной туркмено-казахстанской транспортно-логистической компании.

Эффективным видится интенсификация деятельности Туркмено-казахстанского делового совета и проведение его заседаний на регулярной основе. Очередное заседание Совета состоялось в марте 2025 года в Ашхабаде.

Подчеркнув плодотворность двустороннего культурно-гуманитарного взаимодействия, Герой-Аркадаг отметил, что представители Туркменистана и Казахстана принимают активное участие в международных конференциях, выставках и других мероприятиях, проводимых в обеих странах.

Отметив, что в прошлом году были организованы перекрёстные Дни культуры в Астане и Ашхабаде, Национальный Лидер туркменского народа предложил продолжить эту добрую традицию.

На открытой площадке были представлены легковые автомобили, трактора, комбайны, автобусы и комплектующие к ним.

Затем Национальный Лидер туркменского народа и глава Республики Казахстан проследовали в выставочный павильон, где демонстрировались образцы промышленной продукции, предназначенной для различных отраслей экономики, в том числе для строительного сектора, сельского хозяйства, транспортной сферы и др., а также изделия перерабатывающей индустрии, медицинское оборудование, компьютерная и бытовая техника.

Во второй половине дня совместный кортеж Национального Лидера туркменского народа, Председателя Халк Маслахаты Туркменистана и Президента Казахстана проследовал в Международный аэропорт Хазрет-Султан города Туркестан.

Turkmenistan attaches particular importance to the cooperation of the CIS countries in the North&ndash;South transport corridor project along the eastern coast of the Caspian Sea with further access to Iran and further to the seaports of the Indian Ocean. In this regard, the head of the Turkmen state, speaking at a meeting of the Council of Heads of State of the Commonwealth of Independent States, held in Moscow, voiced a proposal to begin substantive discussion and coordination of common tariff, customs, visa and other preferences for the participating countries of the project.

&ndash; We believe that similar work should be carried out in the context of plans to create transport corridors through the territory of the countries of Central Asia and the Caspian region along the East&ndash;West line, &ndash; said President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, proposing to consider in specific terms the modalities of this work &ndash; specifying deadlines, agendas and so on, to give instructions to the relevant departments of our countries.

In the energy sector, Turkmenistan advocates expanding the volume and geography of energy supplies across the CIS and beyond. We are talking about both raw materials and electricity. Our country considers it a very important area of cooperation to create conditions in the CIS for the functioning of a &quot;green&quot; economy, the formation of economic and industrial clusters based on low-carbon energy. This is a promising task, but we need to approach its implementation now, using the serious scientific and technological potential that exists in our countries, creating conditions for joint research and practical cooperation.

Addressing the participants of the meeting, the head of Turkmenistan also stressed that against the background of complex processes observed in various parts of the world at the present time, our task, responsibility and purpose is to preserve what is of particular importance to the peoples of the CIS &ndash; traditions of good neighborliness, mutual understanding, respect based on those historical ties and basic values that we share. An effective way to preserve and develop them is broad and multifaceted cultural cooperation, the participation of the Commonwealth countries in holding major events that take place in our countries on significant occasions.​
