By Huseyn Hasanov - Trend:

Russia and Turkmenistan have discussed the possibilities of selling Turkmenistan's textile and cotton products on the Russian market, said the website of Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

During the discussions, the Russian side was represented by the vice-president of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Alexander Rybakov, while from the Turkmen side, the meeting was attended by the country's ambassador to Russia Berdymurad Redzhepov, as well as representatives of the Cabinet of Ministers and the Ministry of Textile industry.

Moreover, the meeting was attended by heads of various textile enterprises from the two countries.

Russian side is interested in purchasing textile products from Turkmenistan, but due to a large number of barriers and requirements to buyers, it is more beneficial to purchase these products through European dealers, said the message from Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

In this regard, the meeting participants discussed the steps which could improve the situation by benefiting both sides.

"It was decided to discuss this issue in the near future," said the message.

Further, Turkmenistan's representatives talked about the development of textile industry and its prospects.

Turkmenistan traditionally grows cotton, which serves as the basis for developing the country's textile industry.

The major part of products is exported to the US, Canada, Germany, UK, Russia, Italy, Turkey, China and Ukraine.
