On November 28, 2024, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Turkmenistan Rashid Meredov met with Deputy Director General, Regional Representative for Europe and Central Asia of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Viorel Gutu.
During the meeting, the key aspects of Turkmenistan's cooperation with FAO were considered. The sides also exchanged views on the development and implementation of joint projects and programs.
The importance of the Second Conference on Food Security in the Context of Climate Change, which was held today, was noted, which is designed to become an open platform for discussing issues of regional and global cooperation in such an important area as ensuring food security. In this context, it was noted that climate change is making its own adjustments to traditional farming practices, which requires immediate action.
In addition, the parties expressed their readiness to step up actions to open an FAO representative office in Turkmenistan.
