President Highlights TURKTIME Initiatives During Kazakhstan’s OTS Chairmanship
Regional stability, connectivity, and climate action are among the top priorities for Kazakhstan’s chairmanship of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS), said President Kasym-Jomart Tokayev during his speech at the OTS informal summit in Shusha, Azerbaijan, on July 6, according to the Akorda press service.
Kazakhstan's chairmanship of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) for 2023-2024 operates under the motto "TURKTIME!". President Tokayev has outlined the summit's primary goals, which include enhancing the welfare of Turkic peoples, setting new directions for the organization's growth, fostering closer fraternal relationships, and promoting regional stability.
“We will make every effort to strengthen the international status of the organization. Under the organization’s motto ‘TURKTIME!’ we are increasing our interaction. To date, about 40 events have been held. New mechanisms of cooperation between our countries have been developed in areas such as social policy, law enforcement, education, technology, innovation, and industry. In September, the capital of Kazakhstan will host the fifth World Nomad Games, which are designed to promote the rich Turkic culture,” said Tokayev, inviting athletes from Turkic countries to participate in the games.
“Our strength is in unity. There is only one effective way to resolve any conflicts and contradictions: constructive dialog. That is why we pay special attention to the principle of ‘mediation’ within the framework of our chairmanship at the organization,” he said.(Source:astanatimes)
