The United States attach great importance to the strengthening of the constructive dialogue with Turkmenistan, U.S. State Department Special Envoy for Eurasian Energy Issues Richard Morningstar said during his meeting with Turkmen President Gurbangulu Berdimuhammedov, the government's press service reported.
The U.S. diplomat also noted "the growing interest of the world's largest, including American, companies to the intensification of business contacts with the Turkmen partners in the oil and gas sectors."
"The strategy of modernization and development of domestic fuel and energy, whose key focus is to diversify export routes of the Turkmen energy resources are aimed to this end," he added.
