BulgariaTurkmenistan's September 2026 foreign policy activities
Turkmenistan marked the 35th anniversary of its independence in September with a series of events reflecting the foreign policy course led by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov. On 2 September, a Turkmen delegation attended a high-level forum at UN headquarters in New York on women's leadership in advancing a culture of peace. Turkmenistan's Permanent Representative to the UN said neutrality and peace diplomacy are closely linked.
On 11 September, the Foreign Ministry met UN Resident Coordinator Syaoszyun Greys Wan to discuss cooperation with the UN system. Earlier, in Awaza, Central Asian countries held a second consultative meeting on the UN Special Programme for the Aral Sea Basin (UN SPAS). Turkmenistan first proposed the programme at the Rio+20 summit in 2012.
Other meetings included talks in The Hague on 3 September between the foreign minister and Dutch officials, and a Caspian Sea training seminar in Ashgabat held from 7 to 18 September. On 9 September, the minister met Uzbek ambassador Ravshanbek Alimov.
