Greetings to President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov

The message reads, in part:

"Your country has been making strides in its economic and social development and enjoys the respect it deserves on the international stage.

There has been significant momentum in the development of Russia-Turkmenistan ties in the spirit of an enhanced strategic partnership. Moscow and Ashgabat maintain an active political dialogue and have been successful when working together on various undertakings.

I am confident that our joint efforts will enable us to further expand the constructive ties between Russia and Turkmenistan for the benefit of our friendly nations and for reinforcing stability and security in Central Asia and the Caspian Region."
