Romania and Turkmenistan seek the ''''strong'''' development of bilateral relations, not only on political, but also on economic ground, is the conclusion of the talks held on Wednesday at the Cotroceni Presidential Palace by the two chiefs of states, Traian Basescu and Gurbanguly Berdimukhamedov, on the occasion of the latter''s official visit to Romania, Financiarul reported.
''We decided to strongly develop our bilateral relations, not only at political, but also at economic level. The development of economic ties does not envisage only the energy area, but all economic activities that can be developed under a Romania-Turkmenistan partnership. To this aim, we decided to establish an intergovernmental commission that should analyze all possibilities of bilateral cooperation,'' President Traian Basescu said at the end of the meeting.
According to the Romanian President, the documents signed on the occasion of the visit of his Turkmen counterpart are ''highly important'' and are meant to provide mutual guarantees for investments, the development of economic relations, cooperation in the sector of education and between the two Foreign Ministries. The subject of the European Nabucco pipeline project was also tackled during talks.
In turn, Turkmenistan''s President Gurbanguly Berdimukhamedov said that the two countries have common priorities. ''''We succeeded in setting solid grounds for the development of our bilateral relations. We don''t start from scratch, this relation already has a tradition, as Romania counts to the states that recognized 17 years ago the independence of Turkmenistan, and it is highly important for us to find that we have a great potential for the development of our relations,'' said Berdimukhamedov. He noted that commercial exchanges witnessed a strong growth the year before and are further following an upward trend.
Gurbanguly Berdimukhamedov said that another way whereby Romania can support Turkmenistan''s approaches to develop relations with European states is by actions undertaken within the UN, NATO and EU.
