President of Turkmenistan held an extended meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers

During an expanded meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers held on December 6, which was attended by the heads of Turkmenistan&rsquo;s diplomatic missions and consular offices abroad, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov outlined the key priorities of the country&rsquo;s foreign policy course aimed at further promoting the doctrine of peacefulness.

Respect of the International Community

The Head of State emphasized that the upcoming representative Forum of the International Year of Peace and Trust in Ashgabat will play an important role in strengthening Turkmenistan&rsquo;s international authority. It is expected that the Forum will not only demonstrate Turkmenistan&rsquo;s status as a peace-loving state, but also serve as clear evidence of the international community&rsquo;s respect for the Turkmen people and the country&rsquo;s policy of positive neutrality.

President Serdar Berdimuhamedov noted that all these events vividly reflect the country&rsquo;s foreign policy and highlight the importance of efforts aimed at maintaining global peace, sustainable development, and expanding dialogue based on trust. In this regard, he underlined the importance of further effective expansion of cooperation with international organizations.

Foreign policy priorities for 2026

The foreign policy concept of neutral Turkmenistan remains broad and multi-vector. Next year, the country intends to significantly expand cooperation both bilaterally and multilaterally. The key directions include:

On dialogue with neighbors 
The President particularly emphasized the importance of dialogue with neighboring states. Turkmenistan will continue to strengthen relations based on friendship, good-neighborliness, and mutual respect with the countries of Central Asia and the Caspian region.

On economic cooperation 
Close partnership with the member states of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) will continue. Economic, energy, transport, and communication spheres remain in focus.

On expanding the geography of partnerships 
Turkmenistan plans to significantly expand its engagement with the countries of South Asia, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region. The Head of State noted that these regions demonstrate significant economic and technological progress and show great interest in cooperation with Ashgabat.

Foreign publications released special issues in honor of the 30th anniversary of Turkmenistan’s Neutrality

At present, Turkmenistan is successfully continuing the implementation of digital system capabilities across all sectors. The country is actively pursuing the wide adoption of modern information and communication technologies and artificial intelligence, ensuring their coordinated operation, protecting information, and further developing the support system. All of this provides citizens with access to new digital services, simplifies daily life, and enhances the development and competitiveness of the national economy&rsquo;s sectors.

&nbsp;

During the working visit of the President of Turkmenistan to the United States, business forums were held, including &ldquo;Turkmen-American Business Cooperation: New Opportunities and Prospects&rdquo; and the forum dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the &ldquo;Central Asia &mdash; United States&rdquo; cooperation format. At these forums, both sides emphasized the importance of activating cooperation in areas such as high technologies, digitalization, cybersecurity, communications, and digital infrastructure. This is highly significant for the implementation of the &ldquo;Concept for the Development of the Digital Economy in Turkmenistan for 2026&ndash;2028,&rdquo; approved by the President. At the same time, it will contribute to the development of the digital system, ensure the operation of intelligent systems, expand data transmission networks and internet services, strengthen international cooperation, and attract investments.

&nbsp;

In an era of rapidly advancing technologies, the introduction of the latest nanotechnology devices into human life creates opportunities to accelerate economic growth. Among these, particular importance is given to artificial intelligence. The possibilities for the wide integration of AI technologies into key economic sectors, including finance, agriculture, energy, and public administration, are continuously being explored.

&nbsp;

Today, hundreds of millions of people worldwide benefit from digital technologies and eagerly anticipate innovations. Thousands are interested in current and future development trends in this field. Some are thinking about generating new ideas and determining in which areas these technologies will be most effective. Artificial intelligence is one of the most important directions for the development of human society. Therefore, it is interesting for all of us to see what innovations it will bring in the near future.

&nbsp;

In the modern world, artificial intelligence has become one of the key driving forces of digital transformation. Today, it is not only a subject of scientific research but also a fundamental tool for the development of society, the economy, and public administration. Over several decades, when this technology existed mostly at a theoretical level, it has now become a real force affecting the daily lives of billions of people. The implementation of AI goes beyond computer programs. Today, it is widely used in healthcare, logistics, education, energy, the banking system, public services, and the arts. At the same time, issues of ethics, employment, and information security are actively discussed.

&nbsp;

Over the past ten years, artificial intelligence technologies have developed at a rapid pace. Most tasks previously performed by humans are now carried out by &ldquo;smart&rdquo; algorithms. The main areas influencing modern AI development include the widespread use of big data, the application of more powerful computing resources, the development of self-learning algorithms, and increased investments from major companies in this sector.

&nbsp;

Today, AI is implemented through accessible and highly effective platforms such as OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, Microsoft Copilot, Midjourney, and DALL&middot;E, which are widely used around the world.

&nbsp;

One of the most discussed topics is AI&rsquo;s impact on the labor market. Even now, some professions are being automated, but at the same time, new ones are emerging: AI engineers, data analysts, cybersecurity specialists, AI ethics experts, and programmers developing AI technologies. It is forecasted that by 2030, around 300 million jobs worldwide could be automated.

&nbsp;

According to experts, by 2035, AI will contribute more than 15 trillion dollars to the global economy. In the future, AI will not only process information but will also think ethically and creatively. Some scientific centers predict that by the mid-21st century, &ldquo;superintelligent&rdquo; AI could emerge. Currently, the key issues involve AI&rsquo;s alignment with moral and ethical values, as the cultural diversity of societies complicates this challenge. Therefore, the use of AI should be guided by certain cultural norms. Since the application of digital technologies is linked to the work of state institutions, their approach to these issues can influence development in various ways.

&nbsp;

In the future, AI may lead to the automation of most work processes, collaboration with AI, personalized education, precise diagnostics, development of drugs and treatment methods, creation of individualized treatment and nutrition plans for the elderly and for disease prevention, and the advancement of digital creativity. In this context, it is worth noting that Turkmenistan&rsquo;s delegations participate in international forums dedicated to AI and its possibilities, exchange experience, and gain positive practices. In addition, in November this year, the capital hosted the III Turkmen-Chinese Scientific and Innovation Forum &ldquo;Innovations, New Technologies, and Their Implementation in Production.&rdquo; This is further evidence that the country is open to international cooperation with the world&rsquo;s scientific centers in science, technology, and innovation and demonstrates state support for the development and active implementation of innovative technologies in economic sectors.

Turkmenistan held a regular meeting of the State Security Council

A group of Turkmen-Kazakh specialists in hydrological monitoring and rescue operations conducted field research on the Amu Darya River near the Kerki gauging station (Lebap velayat). The purpose of the field trip was to familiarize themselves with the transboundary early warning system and identify locations for future GIS studies.

On site, in the Kerki district, the group confirmed sites for pilot hydrological surveys, which will be conducted until 2028. The main goal of the project is to improve the Central Asian system of mutual early warning for hydrological situations and identify potential risks.

The plan involves installing automated monitoring stations at gauging stations with satellite internet connections and developing effective public warning measures, including siren and voice alarm systems and mobile apps.
