On the same day, a transmission of the\u00a0speech of the President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov took place.<\/h3>\n<h3>Noting that the current session of the UN General Assembly is being held in a\u00a0difficult period, the Head of Turkmenistan called for an objective look at the general\u00a0international situation, shattered by the neglect of international law, military and\u00a0political rivalry, which, unfortunately, is observed in the world today.<\/h3>\n<h3>To resolve this situation, the Head of State noted \u201cthat it is necessary to consolidate\u00a0efforts aimed at strengthening the role of international law, multilateral legal\u00a0instruments of the existing system of global security, strict observance by all\u00a0countries of generally recognized norms arising from the UN Charter. This is the\u00a0only way to maintain stability and predictability in world politics, to reduce the risks\u00a0of conflicts. &#8220;<\/h3>\n<h3>The President of Turkmenistan emphasized that in order to achieve these goals, it is\u00a0necessary to restore trust in international politics, to establish a culture of respectful\u00a0dialogue.<\/h3>\n<h3>In this regard, the important role of the policy of permanent Neutrality of<br \/>\nTurkmenistan was underlined. As a matter of fact, its keystones contain the\u00a0principles of humanism and peaceful approach to the resolution of global challenges\u00a0and response to the threats of modern times.<\/h3>\n<h3>As is known, this year Turkmenistan\u00a0honors the 25th anniversary since obtaining the given status. The model of positive\u00a0neutrality developed by Turkmenistan calls not for impartiality, but unity by means\u00a0of political-diplomatic tools. This concept is vividly presented in the project of the<br \/>\nresolution initiated by Turkmenistan entitled \u201cthe Role and Significance of the\u00a0Neutrality Policy in Sustaining and Strengthening International Peace, Security and\u00a0Sustainable Development,\u201d the presentation of which was held in January of current\u00a0year in the UN headquarters. The draft of the resolution is under consideration.<\/h3>\n<h3>Then, President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov added that \u201cthe UN General\u00a0Assembly, at the initiative of Turkmenistan, adopted a resolution declaring 2021 the\u00a0Year of International Peace and Confidence. In the light of the implementation of\u00a0the provisions of this document, Turkmenistan sets forth the initiative to hold an<br \/>\nInternational Forum of Peace and Trust next year. The leader of Turkmenistan\u00a0expressed confidence that this Forum will give an important impetus to the\u00a0promotion of peace, stability and will contribute to the strengthening of international\u00a0cooperation.<\/h3>\n<h3>In this context, the important role of preventive diplomacy was noted, which is\u00a0consonant with the UN principles. Noting that the policy of Neutrality is aimed at\u00a0ensuring regional peace, security and development, the President of Turkmenistan\u00a0stressed that within the framework of the upcoming session, the Turkmen side\u00a0intends to propose to the General Assembly to consider the draft resolution \u201cThe<br \/>\nRole of the Regional Center for Preventive Diplomacy for Central Asia.\u201d<\/h3>\n<h3>The Head of State noted that the achievement of peace, security and progress in the\u00a0Central Asian region depends on the settlement of the situation in Afghanistan. \u201cThe\u00a0position of Turkmenistan here is principled and unchanged: there is no alternative to\u00a0the negotiation process,\u201d the President noted.<\/h3>\n<h3>In this regard, it was noted that\u00a0Turkmenistan is ready to assist in the advancement of this process, in particular, by\u00a0creating the necessary political and organizational conditions on its territory.<\/h3>\n<h3>Along with political stabilization, the economic and social reconstruction of\u00a0Afghanistan is also important.In this regard, Turkmenistan stands for the\u00a0implementation of large infrastructure projects with Afghan participation, primarily\u00a0in such important areas as energy, transport and communications. Turkmenistan has\u00a0already initiated a number of projects in this direction, in particular the construction\u00a0of a gas pipeline along the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India route, railway<br \/>\nbranches, and fiber-optic communication lines reaching the territory of Afghanistan.<\/h3>\n<h3>The President of Turkmenistan stressed that Turkmenistan firmly believes in the\u00a0future of the UN, will continue to strengthen and build up strategic partnership with\u00a0this Organization for the benefit of all mankind.<\/h3>\n<h3>The President of Turkmenistan called for the creation of platforms to bring the\u00a0global economy onto a sustainable growth path<\/h3>\n<h3>In his address, the head of Turkmenistan voiced the state of the global economy,which was going through a difficult period this year. It was emphasized that, being a\u00a0staunch adherent of the Sustainable Development Goals, Turkmenistan is actively\u00a0using all the necessary potential in this direction. Unfortunately, the pandemic has<br \/>\nseriously undermined the colossal progress towards the SDGs.<\/h3>\n<h3>The Head of State stressed that Turkmenistan intends to intensify work on the\u00a0creation of UN international legal instruments in the field of stability and reliability\u00a0of energy transit. As is known, the proposals of Turkmenistan in this area have more\u00a0than once been confirmed by the relevant resolutions of the UN General Assembly.<\/h3>\n<h3>The leader of Turkmenistan also noted the importance of developing cooperation in\u00a0the field of transport, adding that Turkmenistan proposes to consider the issue of\u00a0ensuring stable international transport in times of emergency. It was also expressed\u00a0the intention of Turkmenistan to host the International Conference of Ministers of\u00a0Landlocked Developing Countries, which will make it possible to intensify\u00a0interaction in this direction.<\/h3>\n<h3>The President of Turkmenistan called for the comprehensive strengthening of\u00a0international cooperation in the field of health during a speech at the 75th\u00a0session of the UN General Assembly<\/h3>\n<h3>In his speech, the Head of State outlined in detail the position of Turkmenistan on\u00a0key aspects of the international agenda, put forward a number of significant\u00a0initiatives of a political, socio-economic and humanitarian nature.<\/h3>\n<h3>At the beginning of his speech, the President of Turkmenistan expressed words of\u00a0deep empathy in connection with the loss of numerous inhabitants of the planet who\u00a0did not survive the blow of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/h3>\n<h3>President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov dwelled on the measures taken in\u00a0Turkmenistan, which were carried out in accordance with the recommendations of\u00a0the World Health Organization and in close cooperation with the relevant UN\u00a0departments to counter this threat.<\/h3>\n<h3>The Head of State noted that for a speedy victory over the pandemic, close\u00a0professional coordination and unification of efforts of scientific and medical\u00a0communities around the world are necessary.<\/h3>\n<h3>Having voiced the importance of\u00a0multilateral cooperation on the problem of dangerous viral diseases, President\u00a0Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov noted the importance of fully launching channels of\u00a0scientific diplomacy.
