Serdar Berdimuhamedov and Margaritis Schinas discussed the prospects for cooperation in key areas, and in this context, attention was paid to the upcoming EU-CA Sustainable Transport Investment Forum in Brussels at the end of January. 

Turkmenistan intends to take an active part in this forum, as transport and logistics interaction between the regions will open up great opportunities for cooperation with the European Union and make it possible to turn the Trans-Caspian transport corridor into a multimodal, stable and competitive route connecting Central Asia and Europe.
