Slovakia could strengthen cooperation with Turkmenistan in the areas of logistics, energy, the chemicals industry and telecommunications, the Slovak Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SOPK) stated on Wednesday following a meeting between the chamber’s chairman Petr Mihok and Turkmenistan’s deputy foreign minister Ahmet Gurbanov.
“After a brief presentation of the main economic indicators of the countries, both sides agreed that the volume of bilateral trade is very low and that they would like to expand cooperation not only at the government level, at the level of chambers of commerce, but between companies in particular,” said the chamber.
Interest was expressed in organising a business mission to Turkmenistan in the future or in hosting a business delegation from Turkmenistan in Slovakia.
