 On Tuesday, December 12, Turkmen people solemnly celebrated the International Day of Neutrality and the 28th anniversary of the adoption by the UN General Assembly of the Resolution on the permanent neutrality of Turkmenistan.

 “Our neutrality is a doctrine for the development of peaceful and fraternal relations that unite the peoples of the planet in the name of high goals,” President Serdar Berdimuhamedov noted in his festive address to the people of Turkmenistan on the occasion of the International Day of Neutrality and the 28th anniversary of the permanent neutrality of independent Turkmenistan.

 “Located at the crossroads of Asia and Europe, in the center of the Great Silk Road, our Motherland has established harmonious cooperation with the states of the world and authoritative international organizations, and has accumulated positive experience in forming the most effective ways of mutually beneficial relations,” the President of Turkmenistan noted in his address.

 Serdar Berdimuhamedov emphasized that “the legal status of Turkmenistan’s neutrality provides for strict adherence to the norms of international law, the use of the geopolitical and geo-economic potential of the country in the name of peaceful life and its creative development”.
