A videoconference meeting of the joint council on entrepreneurship issues was held between Turkmenistan and the Astrakhan region. The participants of the meeting considered the progress of the agreements and the issues of expanding the trade turnover. The news was reported by orient.tm.
As the Minister of Industry and Natural Resources of the Russian region Denis Afanasyev noted, the trade turnover of the Astrakhan region and Turkmenistan, which in nine months of 2021 amounted to 198.5 million dollars, does not reflect the existing potential. Astrakhan companies are ready to supply agricultural products and industrial goods to Turkmenistan and purchase Turkmen textiles and polypropylene.
The Astrakhan region and Turkmenistan have been cooperating for a long time in the field of shipbuilding. Astrakhan enterprises have already built several oil platforms and other fleet facilities for Turkmenistan and are ready to fulfill new orders, including within the framework of industrial cooperation with the “Balkan” shipyard in the port of the city of Turkmenbashi.
