In the context of discussing trade and economic relations, it was noted that Turkey currently occupies one of the leading positions in the foreign trade turnover of Turkmenistan. The countries actively cooperate in almost all sectors of the economy and there are great opportunities for developing fruitful relations in the fuel and energy sector, the transport and communications sector.
