The foreign policy of Kazakhstan has always been aimed at creating favorable external conditions for sustainable socio-economic development of the country. Its constant priorities were the development of economic cooperation with neighbors in the region, diversification of export routes, attracting foreign investment and opening new markets for Kazakhstani goods.
Afghanistan has long been a modern backbone for international politics. There is no other country around which (more precisely, around which problems) such a developed system of global, regional, two-, three — and quadripartite dialogues are built. Dozens of intelligent people around the world are working on ways to resolve the «Afghan issue», and dissertations are being defended. Monographs on Afghan topics can be filled in several rooms of the library. Before the era of self-isolation, the fast and frequently used international conferences about Afghanistan were one of the drivers of the hotel, restaurant, catering, air travel industries, and everything related to the event business.

Before the era of self-isolation, the fast and frequently used international conferences about Afghanistan were one of the drivers of the hotel, restaurant, catering, air travel industries, and everything related to the event business. For some international organizations specializing in security, the «Afghan problem» served as the main justification for their activities. At the same time, which is very important, Afghanistan with its problems brought out international unity. At the UN, resolutions on Afghanistan are adopted with unanimity that is rare these days. The countries, whose views on the world are diametrically opposed, coincide in their approaches to solving the Afghan issue.
Winston Churchill once said: «Generals are always preparing for the last war.» His compatriot political scientist Martin White added: «And international organizations are always created to prevent the past war.» It is likely that the international system will soon begin to prepare for coronavirus pandemic prevention. And the vaccine for COVID-19 will appear when it mutates to the level of seasonal SARS.
Au cours des années d'indépendance, le Kazakhstan a initié et participé à la création d'un certain nombre d'organisations multinationales, mais aucune d'entre elles, sans doute, n'a donné lieu à des avis aussi contradictoires que l'Union Économique Eurasiatique (UEE). L'idée fut proposée à l'origine en mai 1994 par Noursoultan Nazarbaïev. Deux ans plus tard, un accord permettant de renforcer la coopération économique et humanitaire fut signé entre le Kazakhstan, la Biélorussie, le Kirghizistan et la Russie (le Tadjikistan rejoindra le groupe des quatre pays à ce moment-là).
Over the years of independence, Kazakhstan has initiated and participated in the creation of a number of international organizations, but none of them, perhaps, has caused such contradictory assessments as the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU). The idea was originally proposed by Nursultan Nazarbayev in May 1994. Two years later, an Agreement was signed between Kazakhstan, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan and Russia on deepening integration in the economic and humanitarian fields (Tajikistan then later joined the alliance of the four). An Integration Committee was created, headed by the First Deputy Prime Minister of Kazakhstan Nigmatzhan Isingarin.
The strategic Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) of China has a truly global significance and far-reaching geopolitical implications. «Belt» is the «Economic Silk Road» that links China with the Eurasian continent, Africa and the Middle East by the road, railway lines and fiber-optic communication lines by land, while «Road» is «21st Century Maritime Silk Road» that links China with distant markets and raw materials of the area between Arctic and Indian, Pacific and Atlantic oceans by water.
Уже много раз заявлялось, что наряду с индустриализацией Казахстан активно ищет выходы на различные экспортные рынки, хотя на востоке нашей страны находится возможно крупнейший рынок потребления. И этот рынок продолжает расти и расширяться за счет специально принимаемых мер. Китай – с населением в 1,4 миллиарда человек, почти 30 процентов, из которых составляют средний класс с высоким уровнем потребления.
