On 2 September 2026, a commemoration event was held at the Vienna International Centre to mark the International Day against Nuclear Tests and three landmark anniversaries in 2026: the 35th Anniversary of the closure of the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site, the 30th Anniversary of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), and the 20th Anniversary of the Treaty on a Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone in Central Asia.The event was jointly organized by the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), the Permanent Mission of Kazakhstan to the International Organizations in Vienna, and the Vienna Office of the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA).Participants underscored the historic significance of Kazakhstan’s decision, taken on 29 August 1991, to close the Semipalatinsk Test Site. Over more than four decades, 456 nuclear tests were conducted there, with their consequences affecting public health and the environment for generations. The closure of the Test Site sent an important political signal to the international community and was among the developments that contributed to the emergence of a global norm against nuclear testing.CTBTO Executive Secretary Dr Robert Floyd highlighted Kazakhstan’s significant contribution to the development of the global norm against nuclear testing and to the international system for monitoring compliance with the CTBT. He also noted the practical steps taken by Kazakhstan to strengthen the Treaty’s verification mechanisms.Deputy Permanent Representative of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the International Organizations in Vienna Yerzhan Kuatbekov stressed that the legacy of Semipalatinsk has given Kazakhstan a distinctive role in international efforts to prevent nuclear testing. Referring to the address by President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on the occasion of the International Day against Nuclear Tests, he noted that the 35th Anniversary of the Test Site’s closure should serve as a reminder to all humanity of the tragic consequences of nuclear testing and as a call to prevent their recurrence.By voluntarily renouncing the world’s fourth-largest nuclear arsenal, Kazakhstan made a conscious choice in favour of peace, security and sustainable development. Today, this choice continues to shape and reinforce the country’s position in support of dialogue among nuclear-weapon States, the earliest possible entry into force of the CTBT, strengthening the nuclear non-proliferation regime, and decisive multilateral efforts to eliminate nuclear threats.Head of the Vienna Office of UNODA Rebecca Jovin highly commended Kazakhstan’s consistent commitment to actively advancing the international agenda on nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation, emphasizing the importance of continued cooperation among States and international organizations.The event also brought together national operators of CTBTO International Monitoring System stations, whose work ensures their continuous operation and makes a direct contribution to the reliability of the global verification mechanism. Among them was Abylay Uzbekov, Senior Researcher at the Data Centre of the Institute of Geophysical Research of the National Nuclear Center of Kazakhstan, who provided a detailed account of Kazakhstan’s practical role in supporting the operation of the five stations located on its territory.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa-vienna/press/news/details/1285443?lang=ru

New York, 1 September 2026 – An International Meeting on Victim Assistance and Environmental Remediation was held at United Nations Headquarters under the co-chairmanship of Kazakhstan and Kiribati.The meeting continued a series of events held at UN Headquarters to mark the International Day against Nuclear Tests, shifting the focus from preventing future tests to practical measures aimed at addressing their long-term humanitarian and environmental consequences.The event was convened pursuant to relevant UN General Assembly resolutions co-sponsored by Kazakhstan and Kiribati. Discussions focused on assistance to individuals and communities affected by the use and testing of nuclear weapons, the environmental remediation of affected areas, and the strengthening of international cooperation.As President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev emphasized in his statement on the occasion of the International Day against Nuclear Tests, the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site inflicted irreparable harm on human health and the environment for decades, leaving behind a painful legacy. The international meeting was therefore aimed at advancing practical solutions to these challenges.Opening the event on behalf of the UN Secretary-General, UN High Representative for Disarmament Affairs Izumi Nakamitsu expressed appreciation to Kazakhstan and Kiribati for their leadership in convening this important discussion. She stressed that the consequences of the use and testing of nuclear weapons persist for decades and affect multiple generations, while addressing them requires sustained national efforts, adequate resources and effective international cooperation. Particular emphasis was placed on ensuring the participation of affected communities in identifying priorities and shaping assistance measures.Speaking as Co-Chair of the meeting, Permanent Representative of Kazakhstan to the United Nations Kairat Umarov emphasized that affected individuals and communities must remain at the centre of international efforts. He invited participants to share concrete experiences, lessons learned and practical recommendations capable of translating accumulated knowledge and expertise into tangible action.The voices of affected communities featured prominently in the programme. Masako Wada, a representative of the Japan Confederation of A- and H-Bomb Sufferers Organizations, Nihon Hidankyo, spoke about the long-term consequences of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.Kazakh artist and anti-nuclear activist Karipbek Kuyukov spoke about the consequences of nuclear testing at the Semipalatinsk Test Site and the significance of the international anti-nuclear movement “Nevada-Semipalatinsk.” Participants were also shown a short film about his life and public advocacy.The meeting attracted broad international interest, bringing together numerous representatives of UN Member States, international organizations, affected communities, civil society, and scientific and academic institutions. Participants exchanged national and expert experiences and put forward proposals for improving practical mechanisms for victim assistance and environmental remediation.Director of the Department of International Security at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan Arsen Omarov presented Kazakhstan’s experience in addressing the consequences of nuclear testing at the Semipalatinsk Test Site, including measures to provide medical and social support to the population, conduct scientific research into the effects of nuclear testing, carry out radiation monitoring, and rehabilitate affected areas.He also highlighted the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and the work of Kazakhstan and Kiribati as Co-Chairs of the Working Group on Victim Assistance, Environmental Remediation, and International Cooperation and Assistance. In particular, proposals were presented for establishing an international trust fund designed to facilitate the mobilization of financial, technical and scientific support for affected States and communities.During the thematic panel entitled “Victim Assistance and Environmental Remediation: Experiences, Lessons Learned and International Cooperation”, representatives of affected communities, including those from Kazakhstan, the World Health Organization, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and scientific and academic institutions discussed practical measures in this area.Following the meeting, the Co-Chairs will compile the practical proposals and recommendations presented during the discussions with a view to their subsequent implementation in accordance with the mandate of the UN General Assembly.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa-kazakhstanun/press/news/details/1285387?lang=ru

September 3 marks the first-ever celebration of Kazakh Tazy Day in Kazakhstan. The date was chosen for a reason: on September 3, 2024, the Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI) decided to grant preliminary recognition to Kazakhstan’s national dog breed.The decision was adopted in Amsterdam. The Kazakh Tazy was assigned international breed standard No. 372, while Kazakhstan was officially recognized as the breed’s country of origin.For centuries, the Kazakh Tazy has lived alongside people across the Great Steppe, serving as a traditional hunting dog and becoming an integral part of the culture and everyday life of the Kazakh people. Its special place in the national tradition is also reflected in the FCI international standard, which refers to the Tazy as one of the “Zheti Qazyna” the Seven Treasures of the Kazakh people.Efforts to preserve the breed and secure its international recognition have intensified in recent years. In 2022, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev instructed the relevant authorities to take measures to preserve the national breed and promote it internationally.In 2023, the necessary legislative framework was established. Issues related to the breed standard, certificates of origin, state support, scientific research, and breeding activities were formally regulated.An important milestone was the accession of the Union of Cynologists of Kazakhstan to the Federation Cynologique Internationale. On August 22, 2023, at the FCI General Assembly in Geneva, the Kazakh organization was granted full membership in the Federation. Its accession was supported by 72 of the 77 countries participating in the vote.Following this, Kazakhstan gained the opportunity to officially submit its national breed for international recognition. In March 2024, a package of documents on the Kazakh Tazy was submitted to the FCI and reviewed by the Federation’s Standards Commission and Scientific Commission.In May of the same year, a special single-breed dog show was held in Astana, where 100 Kazakh Tazys of different ages, colors, origins, and types were presented to international experts. FCI specialists assessed the dogs’ conformation, movement, and conformity with the breed type.As a result of this work, on September 3, 2024, the FCI decided to grant preliminary recognition to the Kazakh Tazy.“The Kazakh Tazy has lived alongside our people for centuries. The breed has been preserved to this day thanks to hunters, breeders, cynologists, dog owners, and everyone who has worked with the Tazy from generation to generation. International recognition was an important result of this work, but the work does not end there. Our task now is to preserve the Tazy’s breed characteristics, genetic pool, natural traits, and working qualities,” said Yerlan Nyssanbayev, Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic of Kazakhstan.Today, around four thousand Tazys are registered in the Unified Stud Book of the Union of Cynologists of Kazakhstan. The actual number of dogs is higher, however, as some animals in villages and remote areas have not yet been covered by the centralized canine registration system.Specialists continue their work across the regions, conducting breeding evaluations, collecting information on dogs’ origins, and maintaining records. This work is necessary to trace dogs’ pedigrees and offspring, preserve breed characteristics, and maintain the genetic diversity of the Tazy.The Kazakh Tazy is also being presented increasingly often at international venues. In 2025, the breed was officially showcased at the World Dog Show in Helsinki.In June 2026, Kazakhstan presented 12 Tazys at the World Dog Show in Bologna. As part of the FCI World Judges Congress, a separate professional presentation of the breed was also held for international judges. Kazakhstan operated a national pavilion at the show, where visitors could learn about the Tazy as well as the country’s traditions and culture.Work is also continuing within Kazakhstan. A building for the National Center for Kazakh Dog Breeds is currently under construction in the Zhetysu Region. The project is being organized by the regional akimat with the support of sponsors.The center will house and breed purebred dogs, maintain the Unified Pedigree Book, and issue certificates of origin. It is also planned to train experts and specialists in cynology, as well as to organize trials, exhibitions, breeding evaluations, and competitions at various levels.On February 20, 2026, the Government approved the Comprehensive Plan for the Preservation and Reproduction of Kazakh Dog Breeds for 2026-2036. State and non-governmental organizations will participate in its implementation. The plan provides for measures to preserve and reproduce the breeds, maintain breeding records, train specialists, and continue scientific and cynological work.On April 30, 2026, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev received FCI President Tamas Jakkel. The meeting focused on preserving the national breed, establishing a sustainable genetic pool, and further cooperation with the FCI. The President thanked Tamas Jakkel for his support in securing the preliminary recognition of the Kazakh Tazy.On May 2, as part of the Astana Winner 2026 international dog show in Astana, a special Kazakh Tazy single-breed show was held. Representatives of the FCI, as well as Kazakh and foreign cynologists, took part in the event.Preliminary recognition by the FCI is only one stage of the process. Before full recognition can be granted, the breed must undergo a lengthy period of observation and demonstrate stability over several generations. During this period, breeding records will continue to be maintained, while the dogs’ health, breed type, genetic diversity, natural traits, and working qualities will be closely monitored.September 3 is therefore not only a date marking the international recognition of the Kazakh Tazy, but also a reminder of the importance of preserving this national breed and passing it on to future generations.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa-tallin/press/news/details/1285320?lang=ru

A large-scale phase of railway infrastructure modernization has been completed in the East Kazakhstan Region. As part of the national programme being implemented on the instructions of the Head of State, five railway stations in the region have been renovated — in the cities of Ust-Kamenogorsk, Ridder and Shemonaikha, as well as at the Altai and Kumistau stations.In Ust-Kamenogorsk, the railway station of the Oskemen-1 station has been reconstructed. A modern railway station complex with an area of approximately 2,500 square metres was built to replace the building constructed in 1938. The facility serves more than 2,000 passengers daily. Twelve passenger trains pass through the station, connecting the regional centre with Astana, Almaty and other cities of Kazakhstan.The railway stations in Ridder and Shemonaikha have also undergone large-scale modernization. As part of the work, the facades and interior premises, engineering networks, passenger platforms and adjacent areas were renovated. Following the reconstruction, the area of the Ridder railway station is 471 square metres, while the area of the Shemonaikha railway station is 230 square metres.In the Altai district, the railway stations of Altai and Kumistau were opened after reconstruction. The buildings, constructed in the 1950s, have retained their historical appearance, while their engineering systems, waiting rooms and passenger platforms have been fully modernized.Particular attention was paid to passenger accessibility and safety as part of the modernization. The renovated railway stations are equipped with ramps, lifting platforms, tactile navigation and Braille signs, as well as modern fire and security systems.The development of railway infrastructure is important not only for improving the quality of services for the population, but also for the further development of tourism in East Kazakhstan.

Cambodia Adopts Kazakhstan’s Advanced Approaches to the Digitalization of Public ServicesA delegation from the Ministry of Interior of the Kingdom of Cambodia visited the State Corporation “Government for Citizens” to study Kazakhstan’s experience in digitalizing and modernizing the public service delivery system.During the visit, the foreign guests familiarized themselves with the operations of front offices, the procedures for receiving applications and issuing completed documents, as well as modern solutions aimed at improving the quality and speed of public service delivery.The scale of Kazakhstan’s existing system enabled the delegation to gain practical insight into how public services are delivered to the population. Today, the country has 318 front offices, where citizens can access 1,330 types of public services. At the same time, 1,272 services are available online through the e-Government Portal.As part of the visit, the delegation was introduced to modernized “Digital Population Offices,” designed in accordance with Kaizen principles, featuring efficient zoning and expanded self-service areas. The guests also learned about 24/7 automated parcel terminals that allow citizens to collect completed documents at any time.The Cambodian delegation showed particular interest in the new format of Digital Public Service Centers — AI Offices, which combine artificial intelligence technologies with biometric identification. The offices bring together three functional zones: SELF, where citizens can obtain certificates through self-service terminals; DIGITAL, for accessing online services; and ASSIST, where complex issues can be addressed with the assistance of a consultant.Representatives of the Ministry of Interior of Cambodia highly appreciated the practical value of the solutions presented. The delegation expressed particular interest in the digitalization of processes, the development of self-service solutions, and the use of modern technologies, which could be taken into account in the further improvement of Cambodia’s public service delivery system. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/bko-terekty/press/news/details/1285400?lang=ru

In East Kazakhstan, work continues to monitor and preserve the region’s unique natural biodiversity. Camera traps installed in the region’s specially protected natural areas make it possible to record rare animal species in their natural habitats.In the West Altai State Nature Reserve, camera traps recorded a brown bear — one of the characteristic representatives of the Altai taiga — as well as a maral deer inhabiting the mountain forests of East Kazakhstan.The footage obtained in the Katon-Karagay State National Nature Park is of particular importance. Camera traps recorded a snow leopard — a rare and protected species and one of the symbols of the region’s mountain ecosystems. Individual images made it possible to observe a female snow leopard together with her three cubs.In the Markakol State Nature Reserve, a camera trap also recorded a Siberian roe deer — a representative of the rich fauna of the Southern Altai.The use of camera traps is important for studying the condition of wild animal populations, monitoring their behavior, and assessing the state of natural ecosystems. The materials obtained also make it possible to visually demonstrate the natural wealth of East Kazakhstan.The presence of such unique natural complexes as the West Altai State Nature Reserve, the Katon-Karagay State National Nature Park and the Markakol State Nature Reserve in the region creates significant potential for the development of ecological and educational tourism.Preserving natural heritage and promoting responsible attitudes towards the environment remain important conditions for the sustainable development of the tourism industry in East Kazakhstan.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/tourism-vko/press/news/details/1285001?lang=ru
