Addressing international and regional security concerns, Tokayev noted that Kazakhstan was one of the first in the world to strongly condemn the terrorist attack in the Moscow region and expressed solidarity with Russia.
He emphasized the need for countries to unite within a comprehensive international coalition in the fight against terrorism despite the contradictions in their relationships with each other. Kazakhstan stands ready to contribute to these efforts, the President added.
