Kazakhstan sees in BRICS opportunities for strengthening international stability, development of economic partnerships and solving global problems such as climate change or water scarcity.
„Of course, first of all, we see BRICS as an important mechanism for strengthening international stability,” said Kazakhstan's ambassador to Russia Dauren Abaev. "Today, geopolitical tension is the main challenge and threat to the world community. This is why efforts to de-escalate it are so important. It is no coincidence that our president highlighted Russia's concept of creating equal and indivisible security in Eurasia, as well as China's peace initiative.“
Secondly, the ambassador noted, the possibility of developing an economic partnership with the BRICS countries is important. “Today, BRICS members, without exaggeration, stimulate the growth of the world economy and are important centers of business activity,”, he continued. "In addition, it so happens that our two largest neighbors and key trading partners, Russia and China, are the founding countries of BRICS. That is why there can be no doubt about our interest in economic cooperation. And Kassim-Jomart Kemelevich clearly outlined the key areas of such interaction, including transport, energy, IT technologies, critical minerals, food security.“
"And thirdly, achieving the goals of sustainable development. Unfortunately, against the background of growing tensions and armed conflicts in different parts of the globe, sanctions confrontations and trade wars, such urgent and fateful problems for humanity as climate change, water scarcity, food shortage, poverty and others remain on the back burner. plan. Our country regularly raises all these problems at the international level, and in this sense BRICS can make a huge contribution to their resolution.“
The ambassador specifically emphasized the importance of the messages contained in the speech of the President of Kazakhstan Kassim-Jomart Tokayev at the summit, which, according to experts, was distinguished by a consistent diplomatic style, content and constructiveness.
„I cannot but share the opinion of the analysts. At the same time, your question already contains the answer to it: the entire speech of the head of state was filled with a creative agenda and every point of it is a self-sufficient message, he said, answering the question of what Tokaev's main message was. - I think they are all a good help for further expert discussions.
