The agenda of the VI Caspian Summit, which is to be held in 2022 in Turkmenistan, was discussed by Foreign Minister Rashid Meredov at talks on February 22 in Moscow with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov.
“Preparations for the VI Caspian summit in Ashgabat are entering the homestretch, we hope that this year in hospitable Turkmenistan we will be able to get together and make the decisions that are now in the framework of negotiations,” Lavrov was quoted by the Russian media.
On Monday, during a working meeting via video link, President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov instructed R. Meredov to discuss issues related to the preparation and holding of the VI Summit of the Heads of the Caspian States in Turkmenistan.
“We perceive the negotiation process in the same way, and I am sure that we will be able to agree on a good package of final documents,” the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized at the meeting.
It was previously assumed that the VI Caspian Summit would be held in Turkmenistan in 2021. However, later the dates of the forum were postponed to 2022.
