“Diplomat Magazine”: A Global Platform for Diplomacy
Diplomat Magazine is one of Europe’s leading diplomatic publications based in The Hague. The journal serves as an important platform for the exchange of views among ambassadors, statesmen, and experts from around the world. It covers current issues of international politics, diplomacy, economics, and culture, offering readers in-depth analysis and exclusive materials.
The magazine is renowned for its ability to unite the diplomatic community and promote mutual understanding among nations, making it an ideal platform for Turkmenistan to present its unique foreign policy doctrine.
Turkmenistan’s Neutrality: 30 Years of Peace and Trust
In his article, the Ambassador explores the historical significance of Turkmenistan’s Permanent Neutrality, officially recognized by the UN General Assembly Resolution on December 12, 1995. This status has become the cornerstone of the country’s foreign policy, contributing to stability, good neighborly relations, and regional cooperation.
The author notes that Turkmenistan actively uses its neutral territory for political meetings and conferences that require a diplomatic approach — such as inter-Tajik and inter-Afghan negotiations held in Ashgabat.
The article emphasizes that the UN has reaffirmed Turkmenistan’s neutrality three times (in 1995, 2015, and 2025) and proclaimed December 12 as the International Day of Neutrality. This reflects broad international support for Turkmenistan’s peace-loving policy, guided by the motto “Dialogue is the guarantee of peace.”
The Ambassador also mentions Turkmenistan’s active participation in international initiatives, including the resolution “2025 — The International Year of Peace and Trust,” and the upcoming international forum in Ashgabat on December 12 dedicated to these important dates.
