ASTANA, Kazakhstan, December 12. Kazakhstan
advocates for reform of the United Nations (UN) system, including
expanding the membership of the Security Council and strengthening
the role of the General Assembly, President of Kazakhstan
Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said at the International Peace and Trust
Forum in Ashgabat, Trend reports.
"At the 80th session of the General Assembly, I proposed
creating a group of like-minded individuals to develop concrete
proposals for reforming the UN system. At the same time, it's
crucial for all major powers to demonstrate political will and call
on UN member states to engage in a large-scale dialogue,
demonstrate strategic restraint, and be willing to reach difficult
compromises,” the president noted.
According to the head of state, Kazakhstan supports the
initiative to establish a UN University of Peace and
Neutrality.
“A just and sustainable world order will only become a reality
when narratives of inevitable global confrontation and even nuclear
war are rejected, and militaristic rhetoric is replaced by a
language of peace, trust, and cooperation,” Tokayev added.
