The head of state emphasized that mutual respect and friendly relations among citizens are the main foundation of development. He stated that to maintain peace and stability, every person must consider not only personal but also societal interests.

The head of state said that Kazakhstan's flourishing can only be ensured through the unity and solidarity of society.
