Political reforms and their impact on Kazakhstan’s future development were the focus of a roundtable discussion at the Presidential Center in Astana ahead of Republic Day. The event brought together members of the Kurultai, political scientists and analysts. Experts noted that Kazakhstan has come a long way since gaining independence and continues to move forward. Thanks to ongoing reforms, human capital is becoming one of the country’s key priorities. This is also reflected in the new Constitution, which places particular emphasis on people, their knowledge and intellectual potential. Participants also discussed the historical significance of the Declaration of State Sovereignty, adopted in 1990. They stressed that understanding the country’s journey helps set clearer goals for the future.
«Republic Day,
celebrated on October 25, is one of Kazakhstan’s major holidays. On this day in
1990, the Declaration of State Sovereignty was adopted. On December 16, 1991,
the country declared its independence. These dates marked turning points in our
nation’s history. As we look back on the past, we should also think about the
future. The previous generation secured independence and then spent decades
strengthening it by building state institutions and developing the economy.
Now, our task is to take our sovereignty to a new level and pass on an even
stronger country to future generations. These goals are reflected in the new
Constitution, adopted in 2026, which sets out the key priorities and strategic
directions for Kazakhstan’s future development,» said Ekaterina
Smolyakova, member of the Kurultai of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
