Air quality (AQI)

Turkmenistan faces significant environmental challenges, particularly regarding methane emissions from its extensive oil and gas sector, which accounts for approximately 1.4% of global methane emissions. The country has committed to reducing methane emissions by 30% by 2030 and is implementing monitoring systems, though independent satellite data indicates substantial ongoing emissions from major production sites.

Panorama político y estabilidad

Turkmenistan is governed as a presidential republic under authoritarian rule, with President Serdar Berdimuhamedow serving as both head of state and head of government since 2022. The country operates a unicameral legislature (Mejlis) with 125 seats, though real political power is concentrated in the presidency and the People's Council chaired by former President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow. Turkmenistan is considered to have one of the world's most restrictive political systems, with limited press freedom and non-democratic electoral processes.
