President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov had bilateral talks with participation of the two delegations in Ashgabat on Oct 25, Akorda said.

“After a slight decrease in bilateral trade against the backdrop of a global pandemic, an increase in mutual trade by more than 30% was seen by the end of 8 months of this year.
