The summit of the heads of Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and Turkey will be held in August. This was stated by President Berdimuhamedov at an enlarged meeting of the Government on Saturday, TURKMENPORTAL reported, citing the Vatan news program of the Turkmen television.

“A Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia will be organized in August, followed by a summit of the leaders of Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and Turkey,” Berdimuhamedov said, noting that this event will contribute to “further strengthening trilateral friendly relations.”

As reported at the meeting of the Government, the Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia will be held on August 6 in Avaza . Apparently, a trilateral summit with the participation of the leaders of Azerbaijan and Turkey will also take place in the National Tourist Zone on the Caspian coast.

Recall that the holding of this high-level summit became known in February of this year following the results of the trilateral meeting of the heads of the foreign ministries in Ankara.

On June 29, Berdimuhamedov discussed this topic with the President of Turkey by phone. At the same time, Erdogan sent a message to the President of Turkmenistan, in which he said that “he is looking forward to this meeting.”

Turkmenistan is also preparing for this meeting. On July 6, President Berdimuhamedov made a special working trip to the Balkan velayat to personally get acquainted with the preparations for these international events.
