Tileuberdi delivered remarks at the plenary session, highlighting declining trust among states as a challenge to the international order and the authority of international law.

He emphasized that a stable international order cannot rely solely on the balance of power but must be grounded in international law, mutual trust and the ability of countries to maintain dialogue even amid serious disagreements.

The minister expressed confidence in further strengthening international cooperation, stressing that the future of Eurasia should not be shaped by confrontation or dividing lines.

Instead, he said, it should be built on mutual respect, trust and the willingness of states to address common challenges together.

The forum’s program also included an exhibition showcasing products and technologies in collective security.
