As was noted during the meeting, long-term cooperation between Turkmenistan and Pakistan is currently successfully developing in the political and diplomatic, trade and economic, transport and energy, educational and cultural and humanitarian spheres.
As was emphasized, Turkmenistan attaches particular importance to the development of inter-parliamentary relations. Currently, inter-parliamentary interaction contributes to the effective development of bilateral relations and international cooperation.
Our countries support each other's international initiatives. As the head of state noted, in accordance with the Resolution of the UN General Assembly, on the initiative of Turkmenistan, 2025 was declared the "International Year of Peace and Trust".

At the end of the meeting, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov and Chairman of the Senate of Pakistan Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani expressed confidence that the traditional friendly relations between our countries will continue to develop in a wide range of areas in the interests of the two fraternal peoples, and exchanged best wishes.
