The population of Turkmenistan has surpassed 7 million people, according to the latest census results. The census, which was conducted in December 2022, showed that the country’s population had grown by 1.5% since the previous census in 2012, Turanews.kz reports.
The majority of Turkmenistan’s population is concentrated in the country’s capital, Ashgabat, which is home to over 1 million people. Other major cities include Mary, Dashoguz, Lebap, and Ahal.
The growth of Turkmenistan’s population is due to a number of factors, including a high birth rate and a relatively low death rate. The country’s economy has also been growing in recent years, which has attracted more people to Turkmenistan.
The government of Turkmenistan has welcomed the growth of the country’s population, saying that it is a sign of the country’s economic and social development. The government has also pledged to provide more resources to meet the needs of the growing population.
