ASHGABAT. Nov 12 (Interfax) - A regional center for climate change-related technologies will open in Central Asia in early 2027, the Chairman of the People's Council of Turkmenistan, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov said at the COP31 leaders summit.

"The development of Central Asian countries in the economic, social, ecological, environmental protection, water management, energy and other spheres is interconnected. We believe that in this context an integrated approach will enable countries in the region to take into account mutual interests to effectively solve current problems," the Neutral Turkmenistan newspaper reported Berdimuhamedov as saying in his speech in Antalya.

"One of the important achievements in this direction is the creation of the regional center for climate change-related technologies in Central Asia. As you know, Turkmenistan put forward the initiative to establish this center, which gained the support of countries in the region and international partners," he said.

"From the podium of this forum I would like to note that the regional center for climate change-related technologies in Central Asia will commence its activities at the beginning of 2027," Berdimuhamedov said, adding that this work will be done in cooperation with the UN and other international institutions.

Turkmenistan also tabled a proposal to establish a regional center to combat desertification for Central Asian countries. "In the interests of the practical implementation of this initiative, Turkmenistan will continue to work with the secretariat of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification and interested international partners," Berdimuhamedov said.
