Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are set
to collaborate in the protection and conservation of the environment. Thereby,
the countries plan to create joint environmental educational institutes and
train relevant personnel. Members of the Mazhilis, a Lower House of the Kazakh
Parliament, have begun work on the draft law aimed at ratifying the agreement
between the parties on cooperation in the field of ecology. According to MP
Yedil Zhanbyrshin, the countries plan to take all necessary measures to prevent
emergencies that could harm the environment and establish a special commission.
Overall, the neighboring states will work together in several important areas.
“Cooperation will be carried out
in such main areas as the prevention and control of air and water pollution,
solid waste management, biodiversity conservation, development of joint
measures to improve the environmental situation in the Aral Sea basin and
environmental monitoring,” said Zhanbyrshin.
