Speaking about the prospects for cooperation between Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan, Aidar Kazybayev noted that the countries are united not only by a common culture, but also by a strategic location along the Caspian Sea. He said that the trade turnover between the two countries in 2024 amounted to 550 million dollars, and the parties plan to double this amount in the coming years.
"Turkmenistan has unique economic conditions for developing cooperation. We already have many common projects in the field of transport logistics and agriculture. The creation of the Caspian transport hub, as well as the launch of a special website Kaspian.org, will allow us to expand cooperation", he noted.
Kazybayev also emphasized the importance of sustainable business development and the implementation of environmental measures, such as control over greenhouse emissions.
Kazybayev paid special attention to the availability of logistics and communications between the two countries. In his opinion, the resumption of flights between Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, as well as the simplification of visa support and payment procedures will significantly improve interaction between the states.
