OTS Secretary-General Kubanychbek Omuraliev told Anadolu that at the summit, the member states will focus on four key areas: economic integration, sustainable development, digital transformation, and security.
The OTS, with Türkiye, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan as full members as well as Hungary and Turkmenistan as observers, focuses on enhancing cooperation in areas such as trade, politics, culture, and security.
