On behalf of the United States of America, I extend our warmest congratulations to the people of Kazakhstan on their newly designated Republic Day on October 25. The United States is committed to the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of Kazakhstan, and we look forward to further strengthening our relationship in the years to come.
Republic Day commemorates Kazakhstan’s declaration of independence. Since independence, Kazakhstan has been a champion of non-proliferation, disarmament and global dialogue and has advanced efforts in international peace and security. The United States strongly supports Kazakhstan’s reform agenda and encourages its full implementation through concrete, transparent actions. Kazakhstan is a valued economic and commercial partner in the heart of Central Asia, and we appreciate the active role it plays in promoting common goals in the region.
The United States was one of the first countries to recognize Kazakhstan’s independence, and we are proud of our enduring 31-year friendship with the people of Kazakhstan. Together, we will continue to pursue our shared priorities of peace, prosperity and stability in the region and beyond.
