A new book by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, ‘Türkmenistanyň Bitaraplygy – parahatçylygyň we ynanyşmagyň aýdyň ýoly’ (The Neutrality of Turkmenistan — A Bright Way of Peace and Trust) was presented in Turkmenistan. The presentation took place at the Institute of International Relations of the Foreign Affairs Ministry of Turkmenistan and was one of the key events dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the country's permanent Neutrality, according to TDH.

Before the presentation began, participants viewed a thematic exhibition. The programme also included a literary and musical composition prepared by students of the Institute.

The book consists of nine chapters and details the stages of Turkmenistan's neutrality, its contribution to peace, security and sustainable development. It was noted that over the past 30 years, Neutrality status has become an important tool for international stability and the basis for effective foreign policy interaction.

The publication contains historical documents, speeches by the President of Turkmenistan at international forums and materials on Turkmenistan's cooperation with UN agencies. To date, about 30 agreements have been implemented with them in the areas of motherhood and childhood, health care, education and social support.

As the participants in the presentation emphasised, the book is valuable for diplomats, specialists in the political and economic spheres, researchers and journalists. It is published in Turkmen, English and Russian and features extensive artwork.

The publication highlights the importance of permanent Neutrality, which has been confirmed three times by the UN General Assembly, and reflects Turkmenistan's initiatives aimed at strengthening peace, trust and international cooperation.
