For this episode, I talked with Muhammad Tahir, the director of RFE/RL's Turkmen service, to get a briefing on the latest issues in Turkmenistan.
What is the economic situation after the sudden devaluation in January of the national currency, the manat? What is happening on the border with Afghanistan? Are the new statements from Europe about receiving Turkmen gas by 2019 realistic?
