Kassym-Jomart Tokayev met with Chief Justice of Supreme Court of Azerbaijan Inam Karimov, Chair of the Kyrgyz Supreme Court Mederbek Satyev, President of Türkiye’s Court of Cassation Ömer Kerkez, President of the Council of State of Türkiye Zeki Yiğit, and First Deputy Chairman of the Supreme Court of Uzbekistan Alisher Usmanov, who arrived for the second conference of the Supreme Courts of the OTS member states.

In his welcome speech, President Tokayev highlighted the particular role of the OTS in promoting cooperation between the Turkic nations.

It is necessary to emphasize that the cooperation among the member states of this organization in the judicial and law enforcement spheres is steadily strengthening. The authoritative forum to be held tomorrow in Turkistan will serve as a clear confirmation of this. The judicial system is of paramount importance for the progress and prosperity of any civilized nation. Therefore, deepening the ties between the supreme courts fully meets the common interests of our fraternal peoples, stated Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.

The Kazakhstani leader stressed that today many countries have embarked on a path of dynamic development, striving to meet the challenges of the times and keep pace with global technological changes.

We need to join our efforts and act together in this direction. Tomorrow's conference in Turkistan will comprehensively discuss the digitalization of the judicial sphere, the protection of investors' rights, and other important topics. It can be said that such an agenda is highly timely and relevant. An exchange of views on these issues will undoubtedly give a great impetus to the development of our organization and the strengthening of its authority. As is known, Kazakhstan supports all good initiatives within the OTS and will continue to do so in the future, said the Head of State.
