As part of the Days of Turkmenistan Culture in Azerbaijan, the National Pavilion of Turkmenistan opened on the famous Baku Boulevard, transforming the waterfront into a vibrant center of Turkic hospitality. The event, designed to strengthen cultural and spiritual ties between the two fraternal countries, became a true celebration, with national cuisine and music taking center stage.

The pavilion became a focal point for numerous guests, including deputy ministers of culture of the two countries, members of the diplomatic corps, and members of the Azerbaijani Parliament.

The gastronomic section of the exhibition was of particular interest to visitors. Turkmen culinary masters, working live, presented a rich palette of national dishes.

Guests delighted in watching the preparation of mouth-watering pilaf, golden-brown pastries, and traditional delicacies, which they could then sample. Visitors eagerly took photographs of the culinary show, capturing the memorable moments.

Following the pavilion's opening ceremony, the celebration moved onto the stage. Guests were treated to a rich concert program featuring artists from Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan. The audience enjoyed national dances, folk songs, and contemporary compositions, which once again emphasized the spiritual and cultural affinity between the two nations.

The opening of the pavilion was one of the highlights of the Days of Culture of Turkmenistan, which will run until October 15, giving residents of Baku the opportunity to become more familiar with the rich cultural heritage of their brotherly country.

Specialists at the International Science and Technology Park of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan, led by Durdymyrat Gadamov and Altyn Rahmanova, have developed a new-generation bio-agent designed to neutralize soil methane emissions. The solution utilizes local bacteria adapted to the regional climate, which harness methane monooxygenase to convert methane into carbon dioxide and water.

Methane is a major contributor to global warming, with a heat-trapping capacity in the atmosphere significantly higher than that of carbon dioxide. The newly developed bio-agent features high efficiency in industrially congested areas, cost-effectiveness through the use of local raw materials, and complete safety for human health and the environment.

This scientific breakthrough aligns with Turkmenistan's sustainable development strategy, supporting its commitments under the Global Methane Pledge to enhance environmental oversight in the energy sector.
