President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov sent heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to Nizar Amedi on his election as President of the Republic of Iraq. The head of state wished his colleague good health and success in his endeavors aimed at the prosperity of the Iraqi people.

Ashgabat's diplomatic gesture underscores the new dynamic in relations between the two countries, which over the past year have entered a phase of active practical cooperation.

As a reminder, the Embassy of the Republic of Iraq officially opened in Ashgabat in March 2026. This event was a logical continuation of the extensive political consultations that began in Baghdad in October 2025. The presence of a full-fledged diplomatic mission allows the countries to move their dialogue from a format of one-time meetings to a permanent, operational partnership.
