Cholpon-Ata, 24 July 2026 - Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan Yermek Kosherbayev took part in the regular meeting of the Council of the Foreign Ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Member States.The heads of delegations exchanged views on further strengthening foreign policy coordination among SCO member states in the current international environment and discussed preparations for the upcoming SCO Summit, which will take place in Bishkek on 1 September 2026.In his remarks, Minister Kosherbayev underscored the SCO’s special role in strengthening regional security and advancing multifaceted cooperation, reaffirming Kazakhstan’s unwavering support for the Organization’s activities.The Kazakh Foreign Minister also highlighted the importance of further improving the SCO and adapting its institutions to contemporary challenges and threats.He stressed that, amid the rapidly evolving international environment, ensuring the resilience of the global economy and the security of international trade has become an increasingly pressing priority.“Geopolitical turbulence, increasingly spilling over into the military sphere, is seriously affecting the stability of international trade relations. Today, the security of supply chains is becoming an ever more pressing issue, including for Kazakhstan. A clear example is the attacks by unidentified unmanned systems on energy infrastructure and tankers chartered by Kazakhstan for oil transportation. Against this backdrop, joint efforts to ensure the security of trade routes are of particular importance,” said Minister Kosherbayev.As previously stated, Kazakhstan considers any actions aimed at destabilizing legitimate international trade, global energy markets, and the security of global transport and logistics supply chains to be absolutely unacceptable.Among the priority areas of cooperation, the Minister highlighted the need to intensify joint efforts in climate change adaptation and the sustainable management of water resources.

Снижение среднего индекса цен на социально-значимые продовольственные товары на -0,1% по итогам трех недель июля зафиксировано впервые с начала текущего года. Такие данные были озвучены на совещании по вопросам стабилизации цен на СЗПТ и инфляции, прошедшем под председательством заместителя Премьер-министра – министра национальной экономики Серика Жумангарина.По итогам июня годовая инфляция в стране составила 10,3%, при 10,4% в мае. Уровень годовой инфляции выше среднереспубликанского отмечен в 11 регионах страны. Наиболее высокие показатели зафиксированы в областях Жетісу, Ұлытау, а также в Северо-Казахстанском, и Акмолинском регионах.Как сообщила первый вице-министр торговли и интеграции Айжан Бижанова, июль и август традиционно являются периодом сезонной стабилизации цен на основные продукты питания. За последнюю неделю наиболее заметно подешевели помидоры на 15,1%, огурцы на 18,2%, морковь  на 5,2% и яйца на 2,4%. Вместе с тем сохраняется рост цен на отдельные виды мясной продукции: баранину – 2%, конину – 1,3% и мясной фарш – 0,6%.В связи с этим Серик Жумангарин поручил провести детальный анализ рынка производства мяса и мясной продукции с учетом объемов производства, внутреннего потребления и экспортных поставок для определения дальнейших действий Правительства. Одним из ключевых факторов дальнейшей стабилизации цен станет увеличение внутреннего производства и расширение мер государственной поддержки отечественных производителей. До конца года планируется ввод в эксплуатацию трех заводов по рафинации растительных масел, что позволит увеличить предложение подсолнечного масла на внутреннем рынке.В ближайшее время вступит в силу нормативный правовой акт, предусматривающий льготные тарифы на электроэнергию для 40 предприятий хлебопекарной отрасли. Эта мера позволит снизить производственные издержки и будет способствовать сохранению стабильных цен на хлебобулочную продукцию.Кроме того, АО «НК «Қазақстан темір жолы» предоставляет скидку в размере 70% на железнодорожные перевозки социально значимых продовольственных товаров внутри страны. Местным исполнительным органам поручено обеспечить мониторинг таких перевозок и контроль за исполнением получателями данной меры поддержки встречных обязательств по недопущению необоснованного роста цен.Подводя итоги совещания, Серик Жумангарин поручил государственным органам и акиматам усилить адресную работу с участниками рынка.«По каждому случаю существенного роста цен необходимо анализировать всю цепочку поставок и устранять причины удорожания. Поручаю профильным министерствам и акиматам провести встречи с крупнейшими оптовыми поставщиками и импортерами, определить существующие барьеры и выработать необходимые меры государственной поддержки при обязательном принятии ими встречных обязательств по обеспечению ценовой стабильности. Такую же системную работу необходимо организовать и в отношении непродовольственных товаров и платных услуг, с учетом специфики соответствующих рынков. Каждый государственный орган должен обеспечить реализацию мер в пределах своей компетенции», — подчеркнул Серик Жумангарин. В этот же день вице-премьер провел совещание с министерствами науки и высшего образования и просвещения по вопросам стабилизации стоимости  образовательных услуг.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1262905?lang=ru
