List of ambassadors of the United States to Turkmenistan
December 15, 2023
The following is a list of ambassadors of the United States to Turkmenistan as well as permanent chargés d'affaires posted from Washington for extended periods of time. This list excludes deputy chiefs of mission designated chargés d'affaires by the incumbent chief of mission during the chief of mission's temporary absence from Turkmenistan or during brief hiatuses between chiefs of mission. Note: The United States recognized Turkmenistan on December 25, 1991, and established diplomatic relations on February 19, 1992. Embassy Ashkhabad (now Ashgabat) was established March 17, 1992, with Jeffrey White as Chargé d'affaires ad interim.
^"Principal Officers and Chiefs of Mission, by Name: H".
^"Ambassador Matthew S. Klimow". U.S. Embassy in Turkmenistan. from the original on November 23, 2021. Retrieved December 27, 2021.
^Valerie Chittenden was assigned to Ashgabat as deputy chief of mission, but arrived at post on the same day Ambassador Klimow departed for a temporary assignment in Washington and so was accredited initially as chargé d'affaires ad interim, thus technically qualifies for inclusion in this list.
