Turkmenistan-China energy cooperation will continue and develop. This was written by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov in his article in the Renmin Ribao newspaper, published on the eve of the visit of the Turkmen delegation to China to participate in the SCO summit.

"Among the largest joint achievements in energy, we rightfully call the strategic gas pipeline "Turkmenistan-China", commissioned in 2009," wrote Serdar Berdimuhamedov.

The President noted that “this unique engineering structure is the result of political will, determination of the leadership of the two countries, a reflection of mutual capabilities and potential. In fact, the gas pipeline has become not just a means of delivering significant volumes of Turkmen natural gas to China, but also a prototype of a fair, mutually beneficial and sustainable configuration of the energy security system on the continent”.

"We can be proud of the work done, the fruits of which have given a powerful impetus to the development of the economies of Turkmenistan and China, as well as transit states, the entire system of relations in the energy space in Eurasia," wrote Serdar Berdimuhamedov.

“Cooperation between Turkmenistan and China in this area will continue and develop. It has proven its economic feasibility, compliance with long-term, mutual and multilateral interests”.

Speaking about the prospects for strategic partnership between Turkmenistan and China in the economy, the President emphasized, first of all, the colossal opportunities in the energy and transport sectors. "Here, I am convinced, our capabilities are colossal. Their use is already yielding impressive results, seriously and in a positive way affecting continental geoeconomic realities," the head of Turkmenistan noted in the article.
