Trade and economic relations with Turkmenistan are characterized
by a steady positive balance for Belarus, Trend referring to the Belarus National Center
for Marketing and Price Study.
After reaching a record high in 2013 (exports of goods and
services in the amount of $440 million), there has been a tendency
to reduce mutual trade turnover in recent years.
In 2017, the mutual turnover of Turkmenistan and Belarus
amounted to $65.0 million (Belarus's surplus in the amount of $57.7
million), but in 2018 the mutual turnover amounted to $32.2 million
(Belarus's surplus in the amount of $22.9 million).
Significant potential for bilateral cooperation is seen in
agriculture, health care, education, IT, science and new
technologies.
The main promising areas of Belarusian exports to Turkmenistan
are expanding the dealer network of machine-building enterprises,
increasing the supply of agricultural technology, the supply of
elevator and other equipment, food products, and providing services
in the field of military-technical cooperation.
