Austria is evaluating local projects in the field of agricultural processing and food production.

Negotiations are underway for establishing business contacts between Turkmenistan’s Rysgal Joint-Stock Commercial Bank and Raiffeisen Bank International, a leading corporate and investment bank in Austria and in Central and Eastern Europe.

The attraction of European technologies to the chemical industry and the manufacturing of non-metallic mineral products (glass, ceramics, etc.) is also important, UIET said.
