“The area where the interests and goals of the Central Asian states must be reliably ensured and implemented, and where we cannot under any circumstances allow lag, is innovation and new technologies,” Turkmenistan Today quoted Serdar Berdimuhamedov as saying.

The head of Turkmenistan invited the countries to combine these advantages, establish an exchange of experience, knowledge, skills and jointly introduce advanced foreign achievements. In addition, the President noted the need to create the most favorable conditions for the development of innovative knowledge, as well as to attract and encourage youth creative initiative.
