Oriented on making people closer

At the Summit of the Heads of State of the International Fund for Saving the Aral Sea (IFAS) In Dushanbe, President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov called for the modernization of the Central Asian Water Strategy, which would reflect the basic principles and rules of cooperation on water issues in the region. The development of this document was initiated by Turkmenistan during its chairmanship in IFAS.

In addition, the Head of the Turkmen state proposed to consider the modernization of the Regional Action Plan for Environmental Protection of Central Asia, adopted within the framework of IFAS, and to include its environmental component in the new Action Program to assist the countries of the Aral Sea basin.
