Good Neighbourliness Day in Turkmenistan

Good Neighbourliness Day in Turkmenistan celebrates friendship between neighbours, people from different regions and neighbouring countries. It is a reminder that peaceful, warm relations begin with ordinary human contact.

How it is celebrated: concerts, meetings and festive events take place, people visit relatives and neighbours, and hosts lay out generous tables for their guests. Hospitality is a core value in Turkmen culture.

Turkmenistan's foreign policy rests on permanent neutrality, a status recognised by the UN General Assembly in 1995. Good-neighbourly relations are presented as one of its main principles.
