Turkmenistan's transport industry delegation has held talks in Minsk with representatives of the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Belarus, a press release of the Belarus Embassy said August 2.

The delegation included representatives of the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Road Transport of Turkmenistan.

Belarus and Turkmenistan held consultations on the development of an intergovernmental agreement on international combined cargo transportation in order to increase the volume and improve the efficiency of international freight traffic, the message says.

The two countries have actively cooperated previously in the supply of automotive equipment.
