We welcome the normalization of relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, mediated by the US president, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev of Kazakhstan stated in his address at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly in New York.

“This proves that even long-standing conflicts can be resolved through diplomacy and common sense. Guided by this principle, Kazakhstan has always advocated diplomacy instead of escalation, and dialogue instead of force.

The current geopolitical tensions sometimes prompt some leaders to insist on the inevitability of a clash of civilizations. However, this division is not a given or a fate; it is a political choice,” added the Kazakh president.
