President of Turkmenistan, Serdar Berdimuhamedov, hosted the chief of the presidential administration of Uzbekistan, Sardor Umurzakov on Tuesday.
According to the Turkmenistan Today agency, Sardor Umurzakov conveyed heartfelt greetings, best wishes and congratulations on the occasion of the International Day of Neutrality from President Shavkat Mirziyoyev to the President of Turkmenistan, as well as the words of the Uzbek leader that he warmly recalls his recent visit to Ashgabat.
During the trip an agreement was reached and a contract was signed to supply Uzbekistan with an additional 20 million cubic meters of gas per day (a total of 1.5 billion cubic meters in 3 months).
If this project is achieved, then the gas problem that arose in Uzbekistan in the winter could be completely handled.
