The country offers a wide range of assistance, including food, logistics, and field hospitals with medical personnel
Kazakhstan became a member of the Council of Peace without making any mandatory financial contributions. This was reported by Yerlan Zhetybaev, the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
According to Zhetybaev, this decision aligns with Kazakhstan's interests and supports a foreign policy aimed at fostering dialogue, promoting international security, and strengthening multilateral cooperation.
The President of the country characterized joining the Council as a timely step focused on practical results. "Peace must be built through concrete actions, not declarations," he added.
Zhetybaev also clarified that Kazakhstan did not contribute any funds upon joining the Council of Peace. "The voluntary contribution of one billion dollars mentioned in the charter is not a condition for participation. It is the right of each state," he emphasized.
In response to rumors about a possible deployment of military contingents to Gaza, the Foreign Ministry representative urged to refer to official sources, noting that Kazakhstan is focused solely on providing humanitarian assistance.
The President of the country expressed readiness to support international stabilization forces, send medical units with field hospitals, and observers for civil-military coordination.
Kazakhstan is also prepared to provide humanitarian assistance in the form of food, allocate 500 educational grants for Palestinian students at Kazakh universities for a period of five years, and share its experience in e-government.
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Economy Serik Zhumangarin added that the bulk of the assistance for Gaza will be provided in this format.
"We are ready to provide products or organize the necessary logistics," he noted.
In February, at the inaugural meeting of the Council of Peace, Donald Trump thanked the participants for their contributions to ensuring stability and recovery in Gaza.
Trump also noted Kazakhstan as one of the wonderful and rich countries among the participants of the Council.
In January, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev signed the charter of the Council of Peace, initiated by Donald Trump.
Tokayev had previously received an invitation from Trump to become one of the founders of the Council of Peace for Gaza.
According to Washington's vision, the Council of Peace will engage in strategic oversight, mobilization of international resources, and monitoring compliance with commitments for peaceful development in the region.
Trump stated that the member countries of the Council of Peace have already raised 7 billion dollars.
