    Extractions: Email this article to a friend By Antoine Blua Turkmen President Saparmurat Niyazov will make a rare trip outside his country on 10 March, when he travels to neighboring Iran. Niyazov is likely to discuss gas deliveries and the legal status of the Caspian Sea with his counterpart Mohammad Khatami. RFE/RL looks at the close relationship between the two states and Turkmenistan's place in Tehran's Central Asian policy. Prague, 7 March 2003 (RFE/RL) Turkmen President Saparmurat Niyazov is due to travel to Iran 10 March. He and Iranian President Mohammad Khatami are expected to consider an increase in Turkmen natural-gas exports to northern Iran and to compare attitudes on the status of the Caspian Sea, among other issues. Artem Malgin is the deputy director of the Center for Post-Soviet Studies at the Moscow State Institute for International Relations. He told RFE/RL that Turkmenistan is seeking to expand its foreign contacts at a time when Western states and the Commonwealth of Independent States have effectively frozen relations with the Central Asian country. "I think it's a significant visit. And to some extent, it marks the foreign activity of Turkmenistan that started a year or two ago. [Last December, the Turkmen government] signed an agreement with Pakistan and Afghanistan on a trans-Afghan [gas] pipeline. I can guess that this visit to Iran will aim at the same field on cooperation I mean energy cooperation with Iran," Malgin said.

Thus, the relatively small population of the nation of Turkmenistan did not require extensive state investment for the basic requirements of survival as the nation attempted the transition to a market economy. Living Standards Although living standards have not declined as sharply in Turkmenistan as in many other former Soviet republics, they have dropped in absolute terms for most citizens since 1991. Availability of food and consumer goods also has declined at the same time that prices have generally risen. The difference between living conditions and standards in the city and the village is immense. Aside from material differences such as the prevalence of paved streets, electricity, plumbing, and natural gas in the cities, there are also many disparities in terms of culture and way of life. Thanks to the rebirth of national culture, however, the village has assumed a more prominent role in society as a valuable repository of Turkmen language and traditional culture.

One of the most striking qualities of the Afghan people is their toughness and resilience. Popular culture is based on tradition, steeped in religion and colored by tribal relics of war, romance and magic. The map below shows the major ethnic groups that live in Afghanistan and indicates the extension of the groups into neighboring countries. top Pashtuns are the dominant ethnic group. The Pashtuns , or Pushtuns , constitute an estimated 38% of the population of Afghanistan, and as such are the ethnic majority. Though their origin is unclear, their legends say that they are the descendants of Afghana, grandson of King Saul. Most scholars, however, believe that the Pashtuns probably arose from an intermingling of ancient and subsequent invaders. Pashtuns are Caucasians, of medium height, with strong, straight noses, black hair, and dark eyes, although there is a high incidence of blue, green, and gray eyes: The young girl with the unforgettable blue eyes featured in many National Geographic

    Extractions: The Governments of Turkmenistan and the United States officially opened a restoration project at the 15th-century Seit Jemmalatdin Mosque in Annau on October 11, 2001. With support from the U.S. Ambassador's Fund for Cultural Preservation, local archeologists and historians will reconstruct the unique mosaic tile of the mosque, build tourist walkways and strengthen the foundation of the ruins. U.S. Ambassador to Turkmenistan Laura E. Kennedy and Turkmenistan's Minister of Culture Orazgeldy Aydogdiyev opened the project by joining two pieces of the ancient mosaic, which both said was symbolic of the two countries' cooperation and friendship. The event marked the one-month anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks in America, as well as the 53 rd anniversary of the earthquake of 1948 that destroyed Ashgabat and the mosque. At the opening ceremony, Ambassador Kennedy said that this day "marks the opening of a project with significant religious, historic and artistic value, as well as with profound symbolism for both the United States and Turkmenistan… Turkmenistan and the United States will begin the process of putting back together the beautiful mosque and restoring it to the people of Turkmenistan. And also today, together with Turkmenistan and our other friends, we are piecing back together the fabric of the modern world, restoring to us all a sense of security and humanity after the tragic events of September 11."
