Embracing international law, not weapons

With an independent body of international law, the Republic of Kazakhstan has established military and political mechanisms to address major international challenges and joined international efforts aimed at strengthening global security.

The country renounced the status of a nuclear power, showing by action its intention to follow the principles of cooperation and non-confrontation in international relations.

"Today we are absolutely confident that the decision to renounce our nuclear heritage was the only right decision to ensure national and global security," said the Kazakhstan embassy in China.
