As it was emphasized, Iran attaches great importance to strengthening fruitful relations with Turkmenistan, built on a good-neighborly, mutually respectful basis.

Welcoming the guest and noting that one of the key vectors of the foreign policy of the Homeland is the development of multifaceted cooperation with neighboring countries, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov conveyed his best wishes to the President and people of the Islamic Republic of Iran, noting with satisfaction the traditionally friendly, fraternal nature of the interstate dialogue.

Speaking about this, the head of Turkmenistan emphasized the productivity of the Turkmen-Iranian partnership, which has demonstrated progressive dynamics since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two states.
