UN Secretary-General António Guterres and other prominent political and public figures delivered speeches emphasizing the UN's critical role in promoting peace, sustainable development, and human rights.
Turkmenistan, the first country whose neutrality has been recognized three times by the UN General Assembly, places great emphasis on building global trust and cooperation. Resolutions initiated by Ashgabat, such as “2023 – International Year of Dialogue as a Guarantee of Peace” and “2025 – International Year of Peace and Trust,” reflect the country’s commitment to global security and diplomacy.
The coincidence of the UN’s 80th anniversary and the 30th anniversary of Turkmenistan’s neutrality highlights the deep connection between the organization’s mission and Turkmenistan’s foreign policy, which is rooted in peace, dialogue, and equal partnership.
