Speaking at an extended sitting of the Cabinet of Ministers of Turkmenistan on July 12 this year, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov noted that during the celebration of the 33rd anniversary of the country’s sacred independence, a regular meeting of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, the highest representative body of people’s power, will be held in Ashgabat, at which the results of the political, socioeconomic and cultural development of the sovereign Turkmen state will be summed up. Arkadag Hero Serdar stressed the need to take appropriate decisions on the establishment of an Organising Committee to convene, fix the date of and hold at a high level this national forum of Turkmenistan unique in its form and content.
As you know, the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, first established on a constitutional basis back in 1992, has passed a certain evolutionary path of its development, and today, in the period of the Revival of the New Era of the Powerful State, occupies a worthy place in its political and legal system, fully conforming to the primordial national traditions of democracy and the constitutional provision that the bearer of sovereignty and the only source of state power in Turkmenistan is the people.
