Saudabayev received PACE Chairman

At the meeting the matters of implementation of the "Path to Europe" state program were considered.

In his welcome speech K.Saudabayev noted that the European development vector for Kazakhstan is one of the most important priorities.

"Kazakhstan's chairmanship in the OSCE last year and the OSCE Summit in Astana on the initiative of the Kazakh President is a recognition of the international community of the country's success over the years of independence in the socio-economic, public-political and democratic development," the Secretary of State said.

"Hence we will further actively work on further deep integration with Europe, in particular, with the Council of Europe," he added.
