A delegation from Turkmenistan participated in the 14th Annual Abu Dhabi Investment Forum (AIM Congress), where discussions focused on the future of global investment.
The forum, held under the theme "Mapping the Future of Global Investment: The New Wave of a Globalised Investment Landscape – Towards a New Balanced World Structure," brought together approximately 20,000 delegates from 180 countries.
On the sidelines, Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers for Economy, Finance, and Banking of Turkmenistan, Khojamurad Geldymuradov, held a meeting with UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade, Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi.
During their discussion, Al Zeyoudi emphasized Turkmenistan’s growing role as an important trading partner for the UAE in Central Asia. He noted the significant increase in non-oil trade between the two nations in recent years.
The two leaders also explored promising avenues for cooperation in various sectors, including renewable energy and transport, which were expected to further strengthen bilateral ties between Turkmenistan and the UAE.
Economic ties between Turkmenistan and the UAE have been steadily strengthening in recent years. In 2023, bilateral trade turnover reached $1.3bn, with a further 5.9% increase recorded in the first half of 2024. Major UAE companies—including Dragon Oil, ADNOC, and Masdar—have invested in Turkmenistan’s energy and infrastructure sectors, supported by dedicated investment funds. Turkmenistan’s prominent participation in this year’s AIM Congress marks another step forward in the deepening economic partnership between the two nations.
