President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov won at the festive races in honor of the Day of the Turkmen horse, celebrated every last Sunday in April.

The distance of 1.2 kilometers Berdimuhamedov overcame in 1 minute 20 seconds. In the competition, in addition to the president, six more riders took part. The winner received the prize of arrival - the keys to the SUV Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. Also, the head of state in honor of the holiday gave seven thoroughbred horses.

Then, at the festive events held in the presidential Akhalteke horse complex near Ashgabat, in honor of Berdymukhamedov sang a song written by himself.

Video of solemn events in Turkmenistan amazed users of social networks.

Internet users have drawn parallels between the head of Turkmenistan and the character of the film "Dictator" of British actor Sacha Baron Cohen.

As reported by the "Observer", earlier the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko together with his Turkmen counterpart Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov "distinguished themselves" by the fact that during the rain the planted spruce was planted in Minsk.
