Foreign Policy
Kazakhstan's multi-vector diplomacy seeks balanced relations with all major powers. It hosts the Astana Process for Syrian peace talks alongside Russia and Turkey, and has served as a mediator in Central Asian disputes. Kazakhstan is a member of the Russia-led Eurasian Economic Union and CSTO while also partnering with NATO, hosting the IAEA Low-Enriched Uranium Bank, and serving as a critical transit route for China's Belt and Road Initiative. It actively seeks non-permanent Security Council seats and chairs regional organizations.
