In the era of the Revival of the New Epoch of the Powerful State, our every day is filled with glorious celebrations. This is because our country is a land where dreams come true. Today, under the wise leadership of our esteemed President Arkadagly Hero Serdar, who worthily continues the noble initiatives of the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslakhaty of Turkmenistan Hero Arkadag, it has become a noble tradition to give each year a modern name and create its own symbol. Taking into account the proposals received for the naming of 2026 — the year of the horse — it was declared the year of "Independent, permanently Neutral Turkmenistan — the land of swift horses achieving goals". 

The year 2026 is of particular importance for our country. In this year, our beloved Motherland will celebrate the 35th anniversary of its sacred Independence. Throughout the many centuries of history and the independent path of development of the Turkmen people, our horses have occupied a special place as the faithful and reliable companions of the nation. The Akhal-Teke horse, distinguished over many centuries by its inherent strength, speed, beauty, and intelligence, is today the ornament of the State Emblem of Turkmenistan and the symbol of the progress of our Independent, permanently Neutral Motherland. May the lives of the National Leader of the Turkmen people Hero Arkadag and our esteemed President Arkadagly Hero Serdar, who confidently lead our Fatherland along the paths of development, be healthy and long, and may their great deeds always be crowned with success.
