According to the President, Lithuanian business is interested in economic cooperation with Turkmenistan, particularly in developing information technologies and transport. The development of South-North and East-West transport corridors can significantly contribute to promoting bilateral relations.
Turkmenistan is rich in energy resources, and the European Union, including Lithuania, is interested in the opportunity for energy cooperation.
The President underlined that Turkmenistan's support to Lithuania's bid for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council is very important for our country.
