As the Chairman of the Halk Maslakhaty, I intend to further direct my vast life and political experience to this area,” the Turkmen leader said.
The head of state assured his compatriots that he would continue to spare no effort in the name of a prosperous life and the great destiny of his beloved Motherland, courageous people and generations.
