Oriented on making people closer

Turkmen-Japanese relations have deep roots and continue to strengthen, especially in the sphere of trade and economy. Both countries see significant potential for mutual growth and development in cooperation.

Diplomatic relations between Turkmenistan and Japan were established on April 22, 1992. The first years were marked by the establishment of common areas of cooperation, mutual high-level visits and discussions of prospects for the development of bilateral relations. Since then, relations between the two countries have developed steadily and constructively.

Today, the Turkmen-Japanese dialogue is an example of successful interaction between countries with different cultural and historical traditions. Both sides are interested in further developing the partnership and see great potential in it.

ORIENT presents an interview with Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Japan to Turkmenistan, Mr. SASAKI Hiroshi.

In our conversation, we will touch upon current issues of bilateral relations, in particular, the state and prospects of trade and economic cooperation between Turkmenistan and Japan.

The Ambassador of the Land of the Rising Sun will share his vision of the further development of our relations and talk about new projects that can be implemented in the near future.

Many experts believe that promising areas are such areas as cooperation in the field of introducing new technologies, including in the field of renewable energy sources.

Support for Turkmen small and medium businesses with the involvement of Japanese investments seems promising. Also, great opportunities are opening up in the development of tourism relations between the two countries, given the sincere interest of the two peoples in each other.
