Turkmenistan is closely coordinating its activity with the UN in
the fight against terrorism, drug trafficking and other threats,
the country’s foreign ministry said in a message.
“Turkmenistan stands for the full implementation of the UN
Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy,” the message said.
Turkmenistan cooperates with such international agencies as the
UN Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate, the UN
Regional Center for Preventive Diplomacy for Central Asia.
Turkmenistan is participating in the implementation of the
project being implemented by the Counter-Terrorism Implementation
Task Force of the UN Counter-Terrorism Center, in cooperation with
the UN Regional Center for Preventive Diplomacy for Central Asia in
Ashgabat with the support of the EU and Norway.
Earlier, it was reported that UN Secretary General Antonio
Guterres welcomed the adoption of the Ashgabat Declaration on
Countering Terrorism by the Central Asian countries, as well as
their continued efforts to implement the UN Global
Counter-Terrorism Strategy and its joint action plan for Central
Asia.
In April 2018, Ashgabat hosted a high-level meeting titled
“Towards a Comprehensive Implementation of the UN Global
Counter-Terrorism Strategy in Central Asia”, as well as the third
phase of a joint project to support a joint action plan for Central
Asia was launched.
