By Amina Nazarli - Trend:
Turkmenistan and Turkey have discussed expanding trade and
textile industry partnership, Trend reports via Turkmen media.
This was discussed during a phone conversation between Serdar
Berdimuhamedov, Deputy Chairman of the Turkmen Cabinet of Ministers
and Mehmet Mus, Turkish Trade Minister.
Serdar Berdimuhamedov emphasized the importance of expanding
cooperation in the transportation sector, specifically the
efficient use of transit corridors and air routes to improve
bilateral trade relations.
Mus, for his part, stressed the importance of organizing regular
meetings between representatives from relevant ministries and
departments to facilitate practical joint work.
The cooperation between Turkmenistan and Turkey is successfully
developing in different directions.
If the volume of trade between Turkmenistan and Turkey was 47.5
million in 1992, it would have increased 226 times by 2021 to $1.7
billion.
Back in November 2021, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan
speaking at the 15th summit of the Economic Cooperation
Organization in Ashgabat, said that Turkey and Turkmenistan aim to
increase mutual trade to $5 billion.
Turkish construction companies-contractors have implemented
1,061 projects worth $50 billion in Turkmenistan so far.
