BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 28.
Turkmenistan and Georgia discussed prospects for bilateral
cooperation in trade, economics, human rights and parliamentary
affairs during a meeting in Ashgabat on September 26.


This was reflected in a press release issued by the
press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkmenistan
following talks between Deputy Foreign Minister Ahmet Gurbanov and
Georgian Ombudsman Levan Ioseliani who payed a visit to the
country.


According to the publication, the sides noted the
development of Turkmen-Georgian relations in the political,
diplomatic, trade, economic and cultural-humanitarian spheres.


They also discussed cooperation in human rights and
parliamentary affairs, including the role of the interparliamentary
friendship groups.


"It was particularly emphasized that regular contacts
at high and the highest levels serve as the key factor in
strengthening interstate ties. In this regard, the state visit of
the President of Turkmenistan to Georgia in July of current year
was highlighted," the press release says.







Meanwhile, Turkmenistan and Georgia maintain close cooperation
in the field of regional transport connectivity, primarily through
the advancement of the Trans-Caspian and Middle Corridor logistics
network. This route serves as a vital link between Central Asia,
the South Caucasus, and European markets via the Caspian and Black
seas.


A critical component of this transport system is the Caspian Sea
ferry and port infrastructure. Within this framework, Turkmenistan
operates the Turkmenbashi International Seaport, while Georgia
provides access through the ports of Poti and Batumi. Together,
these facilities support multimodal cargo transportation,
integrating rail, maritime, and road networks to facilitate the
movement of goods between Central Asia and Europe.


Meanwhile, in March 2026, Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of
Ministers of Turkmenistan Nokerguly Atagulyev visited Georgia,
where he held discussions with local authorities focused on
logistics and transit infrastructure, including cooperation with
Georgian Black Sea ports such as Poti, which serve as key entry
points for goods imported into Georgia and subsequently supplied to
Turkmenistan via Azerbaijan and the Caspian Sea.
