Besides, K.Massimov and T.Mansurov discussed the issues of publishing of a book titled "The Eurasian Project of Nursultan Nazarbayev Embodied in Life" in the Kazakh and English languages. The EurAsEC Secretary General presented the book at the 5th Astana Economic Forum. The Prime Minister expressed his support for publishing the book, pm.kz informed.
Implementation of the Eurasian project initiated by President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev is comprehensively considered in the book for the first time. The Eurasian Economic Community, Customs Union and the Single Economic Space are the real evidence of implementation of this project.
The role of the Eurasian project as the key instrument of effective economic and social development providing post-soviet states with new opportunities and perspectives is described in the book. The publication targets a wide range of readers including scientists, specialists in the state management and international relations and all people interested in the modern history.
It is also worth noting that during the 5th Astana Economic Forum, EurAsEC Secretary General T.Mansurov held a press conference titled "The Eurasian project of N.Nazarbayev - methodological basis of the Eurasian integration".
Speaking at the conference, T.Mansurov said that the modern Eurasian integration was started from the project on formation of the Eurasian Union (EAU) proposed by President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev in the M.Lomonosov Moscow State University in March 1994.
T.Mansurov noted that the Eurasian strategy of Nazarbayev went a long way from an idea to its implementation. The President of Kazakhstan managed to convince the Heads of neighbor states that his integration proposals were efficient. The Eurasian project was implemented with the participation of these neighbor countries.
The project of the President became a conceptual and organizational base for establishment of economic integration structures such as the EurAsEC, Customs Union and the Single Economic Space, T.Mansurov said.
