“A new value matrix should be formed through the everyday actions of each member of society, through elements of everyday life. That is why the government is actively promoting the Taza (Clean) Kazakhstan environmental campaign.

“In the world of global politics, there is no room for sentimentality and naivety. The opinion that a multi-vector or neutrality policy is the simplest and most convenient is a myth and amateurism. The balanced multi-vector policy pursued by Kazakhstan involves enormous efforts and is incredibly difficult, especially now when the polarization of the world is rapidly increasing. Such a policy is not easy. However, this is the most correct course, taking into account our geopolitical location and the interests of the country,” he said.
