Former U.S. Ambassador to Kazakhstan, Richard Hoagland, highlighted the Kazakhstan's firm leadership in resolving pressing international issues. He highly appreciated Kazakhstan’s peacekeeping initiatives put forward by Nursultan Nazarbayev.

RICHARD HOAGLAND, FORMER U.S. AMBASSADOR TO KAZAKHSTAN:
- Kazakhstan with multi-vector diplomacy as an honest broker on the world stage maintaining Kazakhstan’s independence and territorial integrity, while at the same time building positive relations with Russia, with China, with United States and with the European Union. It seriously undertook economic reform, which is now paying off handsomely. In 2010, when it held the chairmanship in Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, it hosted the first OSCE summit in many years.
