Turkmen Foreign Minister Rashid Meredov and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov have had a phone talk highlighting the ongoing active political dialogue between Ashgabat and Moscow, focusing on broad bilateral cooperation and international collaboration.

The call acted as a practical follow-up to the agreements reached in June, when Ashgabat hosted the signing of the 2025-2026 Cooperation Program between the foreign ministries of Turkmenistan and Russia, The Caspian Post reports via Turkmen media.

The program outlines regular high-level contacts and consultations to further strengthen bilateral ties.

Officials noted that the conversation reflects a close and trusting relationship, aimed at enhancing partnerships across various sectors. The dialogue was more than an exchange of views-it represented a strategic coordination on key issues, facilitating joint projects and effective cooperation.
