 Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov: "Happiness Begins with Love for the Motherland"

A session of the Khalk Maslakhaty, the highest representative body of people's power in Turkmenistan, was held in Ashgabat. This event marked an important milestone in the country's political and social life, reaffirming the state's strategic course toward strengthening national independence, socioeconomic development, and societal consolidation.

National Leader of the Turkmen People Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov delivered the address. His speech, as usual, was distinguished by its scope, systematicity, and reliance on the fundamental values of Turkmen statehood.

Caring for the Individual is the Foundation of Policy

The speech emphasized that the state's top priority remains the individual, his well-being and confidence in the future. “The health of the people is the wealth of the country," the head of the highest representative body of people's power noted.

Turkmenistan continues its policy focused on social guarantees: free education and healthcare, family support, and the preservation of public utility benefits.

This policy, established in the early years of independence, is seen as the foundation of a just and harmonious society. Caring for each family, raising a healthy and educated generation, and paying attention to the older generation—all of this creates an atmosphere of stability and trust in Turkmen society.

Economy and Modernization

A significant portion of the report was devoted to economic issues. The country is implementing large-scale infrastructure projects, modernizing its industry, and developing its transport and logistics system.

Particular attention is paid to the fuel and energy sector, which plays a strategic role not only for the country but also for the region as a whole. Exports of natural gas and oil strengthen the energy security of neighboring states and contribute to international stability.

At the same time, the focus on economic diversification remains unchanged. Agriculture, processing industry, and digital technologies are developing, and "green" solutions are being implemented. This approach helps balance the economic system and reduce dependence on raw materials.

Against this backdrop, the construction of Arkadag stands out as a striking illustration of current achievements and future plans. "Arkadag Smart City will become the center of industrial and innovative development," Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov stated.

Cultural Values and the Education of Youth

A key focus of the speech was the topic of spiritual and cultural heritage. According to the head of the Khalk Maslakhaty, the rich history and traditions of the Turkmen people are not only a source of national pride but also a powerful factor in educating the younger generation.

The development of civic responsibility, respect for elders, and a commitment to family values and national culture must go hand in hand with modern education and professional training. This synthesis of tradition and innovation is seen as the foundation of Turkmenistan's sustainable development.

"National heritage and culture have a peacemaking power," the speaker emphasized, referring to the constructive role of the spiritual sphere in the development of cultural diplomacy.

Foreign Policy and International Cooperation

In his speech, the National Leader of the Turkmen people devoted considerable attention to foreign policy. The country consistently and purposefully implements the principles of positive neutrality, openness, and good-neighborliness.

Turkmenistan is actively developing cooperation in Central Asia, building partnerships with the CIS, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. It was noted that the state's peace-loving stance and readiness for equal dialogue strengthen the country's international standing.

According to Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, it is precisely this commitment to peace and mutually beneficial cooperation that ensures Turkmenistan's stable development and the opportunity to contribute to global security.

"Turkmenistan's neutrality is the heritage of all humanity," the head of the country's highest representative body emphasized.

Confidence in the Future

In conclusion, the Chairman of the Khalk Maslakhaty expressed confidence that under the leadership of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, the country will confidently move forward along the path of progress and modernization.

Today, Turkmenistan is demonstrating sustainable growth, strengthening its independence, and consistently implementing a strategy of national revival and socioeconomic renewal. The combination of loyalty to tradition and a focus on innovation creates its own development model, in which the people and their well-being remain the primary focus.

"Happiness begins with love for the Motherland, and love for the Motherland means working for its well-being," the National Leader noted.

...The Khalk Maslakhaty meeting was an important signal that Turkmenistan is confidently following the path of progress and stability. People's power, strong state leadership, concern for the people, and openness to the world are key components of the country's course, ensuring its strong position today and great prospects for the future.
