Every year on May 18, Turkmenistan celebrates two sacred values of our statehood with great solemnity — the Basic Law and the State Flag. These dates are a vivid expression of our people's unity, peace-loving nature, and confidence in a happy future.
The Constitution of Turkmenistan forms the basis of the national legal system and democratic development in our country. Our Basic Law, improved through reforms in 2008, 2016, and 2020, promotes the principle "The State is for the Human Being!".
The green Banner of Turkmenistan symbolizes the glory, dignity, and unity of our people in the world. Five ancient carpet guls, a crescent moon, five stars, and olive branches — a symbol of peace — demonstrate the harmony between the past and the future.
This double holiday brings great pride to the heart of every Turkmenistan citizen as a symbol of mutual respect, loyalty to the Motherland, and the inviolability of our statehood.
