Kazakhstan’s President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev delivered an address to the people titled “Current Tasks of Kazakhstan in a New Historical Cycle”. He outlined key areas of the country’s social and economic development, domestic and foreign policy, and priorities for the future.
Tokayev said historical changes in the country are taking place before the public’s eyes. He proposed declaring next year the Year of Nationwide Large-Scale Construction and said construction should be launched and expanded across all regions. Citizens should have access to full social infrastructure, he said.
Other priorities include creating a unified logistics network linking Kazakhstan’s regions, building reserves of rare and non-ferrous metals to integrate the country into global production chains, and introducing artificial intelligence in agriculture.
