The parliamentarians of the countries of Central Asia and Russia must develop and adopt operational decisions for the development of economic cooperation in strategic areas.

I am convinced that here the parliamentarians cannot remain on the sidelines,” the head of the Turkmen parliament continued.
“In such strategic areas as transport, energy, industrial cooperation, it is necessary to create and use mechanisms of international legal support, work on convergence and harmonization of national legislation, elimination of legal and other barriers that hinder partnerships and business ties,” Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov emphasized.
