The Budapest Declaration was adopted at the Informal Summit of the Heads of State of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) in Hungary, outlining a strategic roadmap for economic integration, digital transformation, and regional cooperation.
At a joint press conference with Hungarian foreign minister Péter Szijjártó, OTS secretary general Kubanichbek Omuraliev announced the adoption of the comprehensive declaration.
“Today, the leaders of the Turkic states formalised a shared vision for the next stage of cooperation by signing a comprehensive document that looks to the future,” Omuraliev said.
The declaration outlines key goals for regional economic integration through enhanced trade, streamlined customs procedures, and infrastructure development along the Middle Corridor and Trans-Caspian routes.
It also highlights technological collaboration in areas such as digital transformation, critical raw materials, joint research, and innovation.
Omuraliev noted that environmental sustainability remains a priority, with the declaration stressing the importance of green energy corridors, regional security, international law, and unified responses to geopolitical challenges like the situation in Afghanistan.
