Kazakh Diaspora in New York Celebrates Republic Day

Republic Day was also celebrated by the Kazakh community in New York. Ahead of the national holiday, Kazakhstan’s Mission to the United Nations hosted a reception for members of the diplomatic corps. Ambassador Kairat Umarov noted that the history of independent Kazakhstan has always been a journey shared with its partners and friends. He also highlighted the country’s achievements over 35 years of independence and its peacebuilding efforts as a cornerstone of its multilateral diplomacy. Another event marking the occasion was the annual national flag-raising ceremony in New York. This year, it brought together representatives of the U.S. Department of State, foreign ambassadors and members of the local Kazakh community.
