Since the declaration of independence, Turkmenistan has achieved significant success in the spheres of economic and socio-political reforms, securing a worthy place within the system of international relations.

I am confident that the traditionally friendly relations established between Armenia and Turkmenistan will continue to develop and expand consistently in the future, for the benefit and prosperity of our countries and peoples. I look forward to our upcoming meetings in Awaza and Yerevan, which will provide a good opportunity for a substantive dialogue.

Taking this opportunity, I wish you good health and all the best, and peace and continued progress to the friendly people of Turkmenistan''.
