Turkmenistan has proposed deepening trade cooperation with Tatarstan, including in the field of e-Commerce. This was announced by Maksat Gutlymyradov, Head of the Foreign Economic Relations Department of the Ministry of Finance and Economy of Turkmenistan, at a meeting of the joint Turkmen-Tatarstan working group in Ashgabat, according to the news website Asmannews.

According to him, the growth of online formats is important for strengthening economic cooperation.

Foreign trade turnover in 2024 reached about $40 million: Turkmenistan's exports amounted to $9.9 million, while imports exceeded $25 million, which is 24% lower than in 2023 due to a reduction in supplies from Tatarstan.

At the same time, exports of Turkmen products to Tatarstan increased 6.2 times, from $1.6 million to $9.9 million. This trend was also observed in the first half of 2025, noted M. Gutlymyradov.
