The implementation of the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) transnational gas pipeline project became one of the important topics of the telephone conversation between President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov and his Pakistani counterpart Arif Alvi last Friday.
During the conversation, the parties noted that the implementation of the TAPI project constitutes the strategic basis of interstate partnership in the energy sector.
