"Gateway" means how to move stuff through a maximum security like prison reality of Turkmenistan to somewhere else. "Translating geographical advantages into a commercially viable transit route demands profound modernization of cargo management systems, the digitalization of border procedures, and seamless integration with international financial institutions" There is no evidence that Turkmenistan has any of this or any plan about this. The vision of Turkmen government in the development of the Trans-Caspian Transport Corridor remains unknown #Turkmenistan

On September 11, 2026, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Executive Board found Turkmenistan in breach of its obligations under Article VIII, Section 5 of the IMF's Articles of Agreement for failing to provide key economic data, such as international reserves, gold holdings, and balance of payments #Turkmenistan imf.org/en/news/articles/202…
Both Rashid Meredov and @WHO witnessed the death of thousands of Turkmens from #covid and kept silent. WHO went along with the government's denial of covid and never called on the government to report deaths. The government continues extorting a fee from the passengers for "covid test" at the airport #Turkmenistan
Is the government taking what IMF is asking seriously? Why is this led by the deputy foreign minister? Not the Central Bank, not the minister of Finance and Economy, not Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers responsible for Economy and Finance? #Turkmenistan This might be an attempt to mitigate reputation (Aha, the autocratic regime cares what international organizations say!) but no hope for data transparency. Institutions has been decimated.

2026 harvest: Teachers in Turkmenistan are being sent to pick cotton, despite paying for replacement pickers #Turkmenistan #Lebap hronikatm.com/2026/10/teache…
ILO publishes the findings from the ILO’s observance of the 2025 cotton harvest in Turkmenistan, with a particular focus on child labour and forced labour. Most concerningly, the observance documents a clear increase in children’s presence in cotton fields compared to 2024, despite strengthened legal prohibitions. Public employees continued to participate in cotton picking. Available data do not demonstrate a decisive overall change compared to 2024. Refusal to participate in forced cotton picking could entail social, economic or employment-related consequences. These reported perceptions raise questions about the voluntariness of participation for some workers. Reports of having to pay a fee to avoid picking cotton persisted #Turkmenistan @ilo @ILO_EECA @cottoncampaign ilo.org/publications/2025-ob…

Хлопковая страда в Туркменистане продолжается с централизованным принуждением к участию в ней работников бюджетной сферы. При этом отдельные чиновники используют кампанию для своего обогащения. В Марыйском и Лебапском велаятах собирать хлопок заставляют и солдат, проходящих срочную службу. Марыйские дехкане рассказали о хищениях техники и агрохимикатов, которые должны получать от государства, а также об убыточности своей работы. Не уродилась в этом году и сама культура: на некоторых полях хлопчатник сильно пострадал от сельхозвредителей.

The e-visa website is not working #Turkmenistan Meanwhile, "the State Migration Service of Turkmenistan informs applicants directly about any changes regarding their applications, so they do not need to worry about their status, and they can make payments on their own. He added that upon arrival, foreign delegates were provided by the organizers with SIM cards offering unlimited internet access, ensuring they could stay in touch with their families throughout the forum" turkmenportal.com/en/news/10…
It is actually a different web page address now, the different address from what the government shared initially. Journalists, researchers please apply and tell the story! #Turkmenistan evisa.migration.gov.tm/web/v…

Ранее студенты платных отделений высших учебных заведений вносили плату за обучение дважды в год — в начале каждого семестра. Однако в этом году уже в начале октября администрации вузов потребовали оплатить и второй семестр hronikatm.com/2026/10/studen…
The government does not have an educational policy. It has no vision. Expectation for "hope, hoping" is so low for Turkmenistan by the international community. "Learn to read, connect to the world and good luck" #Turkmenistan eurasianet.org/turkmenistan-…
