A high-level delegation from Turkmenistan, led by Deputy Minister of Finance and Economy Perhat Yagshyev, participated in the 109th meeting of the Economic Council of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) held in Moscow. This session served as a key platform for evaluating the current state of economic integration and outlining future cooperative strategies among member nations. Turkmenistan’s presence underscores its active role in fostering regional economic stability.

During the meeting, participants engaged in comprehensive discussions regarding priority areas of economic partnership. The agenda focused on enhancing intra-CIS trade, optimizing supply chains, and strengthening industrial cooperation. The delegates emphasized the need for a unified approach to addressing regional economic trends and securing sustainable growth through collective efforts across various sectors.

The session also included a detailed review of several draft documents and agreements aimed at refining the legal framework of the CIS. These legislative proposals are designed to streamline trans-border operations and foster a more conducive environment for international investment. The approval of these documents is expected to facilitate smoother economic interactions and regulatory alignment between the participating states.

The Council concluded by scheduling the next high-level gathering, which is set to take place in Moscow in June 2026. Until then, specialized working groups will continue to refine the initiatives discussed during this session to ensure effective implementation. This ongoing dialogue reflects the commitment of CIS members to maintaining a dynamic and resilient economic partnership in the coming years.
