Kazakhstan’s President Demands Urgent UN Reforms Amid Rising Global Tensions

Kazakhstan’s President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has called for urgent reforms to the United Nations at an international forum in Ashkhabad. He stressed the need to strengthen multilateral institutions, warning that global tensions and eroding trust threaten sustainable development worldwide.

Speaking at the event, Tokayev highlighted the growing challenges to international law and the declining influence of bodies like the UN. He argued that without meaningful reform, the organisation’s ability to maintain peace and security would weaken further.

Tokayev’s remarks come amid rising global instability and calls for stronger international cooperation. The proposed reforms aim to restore confidence in multilateral systems while addressing gaps in governance. Kazakhstan’s initiative signals a push for broader collaboration on UN restructuring in the coming years.
