On September 22, 2025, during a working visit to the United States, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov participated in the high-level plenary meeting of the General Assembly to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.

As a neutral state, Turkmenistan pursues a foreign policy aimed at strengthening peace, stability, and international cooperation. Turkmenistan is the first country in the world to have its neutrality recognized by the UN. This status is reflected in our country's numerous international initiatives that contribute to maintaining global security.

Another important resolution, adopted at the suggestion of Turkmenistan, is "2025 – International Year of Peace and Trust." This initiative was put forward by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov and unanimously supported by the UN General Assembly. The adoption of this document recognizes Turkmenistan's contribution to promoting peace and reflects its position as a neutral state capable of uniting countries around shared values. As is well known, 2025 marks two significant dates: the 30th anniversary of Turkmenistan's neutrality and the 80th anniversary of the founding of the UN. The coincidence of these two anniversaries highlights the historical connection between Turkmenistan and the UN. Over the past 30 years since achieving neutrality, our country has proven that this international status is an effective tool for promoting peace.

The "Dialogue: A Guarantee of Peace" initiative, which is a key component of Turkmenistan's cooperation with the UN, aims to develop dialogue as the primary mechanism for preventing conflicts and building trust between peoples. Proclaimed by Hero Arkadag, the National Leader of the Turkmen People and Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, this initiative, as a new philosophy in interstate relations, has received broad support from the international community.

This initiative encompasses not only political aspects but also cultural exchanges that facilitate the development of coordinated solutions. Turkmenistan, through various joint events with the UN, utilizes national culture as a tool for worldbuilding. This emphasizes the role of culture in strengthening global solidarity and ensuring peace.

Turkmenistan also takes an active role in initiatives to ensure stability in the region. The adoption of the Resolution "Zone of Peace, Confidence, and Cooperation in Central Asia" at the UN General Assembly on July 28, 2022, at our proposal, was a significant event for both the region and the entire system of international relations. This fundamental political and legal document, proposed by Turkmenistan, enshrines the principles of long-term cooperation and peace in the heart of Eurasia.

The adoption of the resolutions "International Day of Neutrality," "International Year of Peace and Confidence," and "Zone of Peace, Confidence, and Cooperation in Central Asia" is the result of our country's well-thought-out and consistent foreign policy strategy. Turkmenistan not only puts forward initiatives but also demonstrates its willingness to seek their recognition and practical implementation internationally. This consistency strengthens confidence in our country’s peacekeeping foreign policy.
