Priority Vectors of Turkmenistan at the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly
As a responsible member of the international community, Turkmenistan, consistently puts forward new international initiatives aimed at achieving the high ideals and goals of the United Nations. The upcoming 81st session of the UN General Assembly is envisioned to serve as an important platform for consolidating the international community’s efforts to address current issues of peacebuilding, international security, and sustainable development.
Being an active participant in international processes, Turkmenistan will, within the framework of the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, present its vision for addressing the most pressing and urgent challenges facing humanity and propose concrete initiatives aimed at effectively resolving them.
The most important principles of the foreign policy of Turkmenistan have been and remain a firm commitment to its universally recognized status of neutrality, comprehensive support for constructive dialogue aimed at strengthening peace, stability, and security, as well as the development of effective regional and interregional cooperation.
The basis of Turkmenistan’s strategic cooperation with the United Nations is the peace-building essence of neutrality and the convergence of fundamental goals aimed at preserving peace, strengthening international security, and ensuring sustainable development, taking into consideration national, regional, and global interests. Programmed actions are also aimed at strengthening mechanisms of preventive diplomacy, as evidenced by the set of multilateral documents of the UN General Assembly adopted upon the initiative of Turkmenistan and the constructive work of the UN Regional Center for Preventive Diplomacy for Central Asia with headquarters in Ashgabat.
