March 2 is a special date for the foreign policy of Kazakhstan. It was on this day in 1992 that the country joined the UN. Over 30 years, Kazakhstan has managed to become a recognizable state in the international Organization in many ways thanks to its active position and initiatives. Kazakhstan made a significant contribution to ensuring peace, stability and security on the planet. The country is set to keep working in cooperation with the Organization to achieve the goals of the UN.
“Kazakhstan has been a reliable partner since the first year of membership in the UN. The UN highly appreciates this collaboration. Kazakhstan is a very active member of the organization. Because it uses the platforms provided by the UN to promote initiatives both at the global and regional levels,” said Natalia Gherman, Special Representative of UN Secretary-General for Central Asia.
“You held the fourth largest number of nuclear arsenals and you set the right example, really honorable example of becoming non-nuclear weapon states. And taking that position so clearly, and even went further to start taking sort of a global, international leadership in the areas of especially nuclear disarmament. So, you have been a very important collaborator, of course, the one of the areas that you picked up immediately is to utilize the very important symbolic closure of the Semipalatinsk,” UN Under-Secretary-General Izumi Nakamitsu noted.
