In Ashgabat

In Ashgabat they say [1] a long-dreamed-of pipeline can now be built. With the terrorists smoked out of their holes and driven far away, with peace and freedom spreading throughout the mountains and the valleys, prosperity beckons tantalizingly, and the future is bright.

In Ashgabat. With peace and freedom in full flower.

In Ashgabat. Where our tax dollars bear fruit.

In Ashgabat. A pipeline.

In Ashgabat.
