This was reported on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkmenistan.

The interlocutors discussed the organization of joint events on the occasion of the celebrated this year 300th anniversary of the great thinker and poet, also revered in Uzbekistan to be held within the framework of the program of the Year of Magtymguly Fragi, announced by the International Organization of Turkic States/TURKSOY.
