🇰🇿🇸🇮 On the occasion of the 36th anniversary of Kazakhstan’s Declaration of State Sovereignty and the 34th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Kazakhstan and Slovenia, the Ljubljana-based International Institute for Middle East and Balkan Studies (IFIMES) has published a thoughtful and insightful analysis of Kazakhstan’s remarkable journey of statehood, political and economic transformation, modernization, and growing international role as a responsible middle power. The publication also highlights Kazakhstan’s balanced foreign policy, economic potential, strategic role in connecting Europe and Asia, and the positive dynamics and promising prospects of Kazakhstan–Slovenia relations across trade, investment, innovation, and other areas of mutual interest. We extend our sincere gratitude and warm appreciation to the leadership and expert team of IFIMES for their continued interest in Kazakhstan, valuable analytical work, and meaningful contribution to strengthening friendship, mutual understanding, and cooperation between our two countries. We highly value our partnership with IFIMES and look forward to further fruitful cooperation and new shared achievements! 🇰🇿🤝🇸🇮🤝🇪🇺 @IFIMES @nmusar @MZEZ_RS @vladaRS @MFA_KZ @Kazakhstan @EUKZFriendship 🔗 ifimes.org/en/researches/the…

South Korea’s Structural Fragility And The Risk Of A 1997-Style Crisis – Analysis eurasiareview.com/14102026-s… If South Korea wants to reduce crisis risk, it must treat structural adjustment as a national priority rather than a technocratic option. Several policy directions are especially important.

Dönüm Noktasındaki Dünya: Siyasi İstikrarsızlık Aşılabilecek mi Yoksa Nükleer Savaş mı? ifimes.org/en/researches/the… (Original article; Elections, War and the Risk of Escalation) Yerkürenin dört bir yanında seçim dönemine giriliyor. ABD ve İsrail gibi mevcut savaş ve çatışmalarda etkili rol oynayan iki ülke sandık başına gitmeye hazırlanıyor. Avrupa, gelecek yıl hayatî diye tanımlanabilecek seçimleri kıtası olacak. Peki, bütün bu demokrasinin gereği olan sandıklardan çıkacak neticeler mevcut siyasi iklimi bugünkünden farklı bir görünüme kavuşturabilecek mi? Diğer deyişi ile savaş ve çatışmaları azaltacak, Filistin/Gazze sorununu çözecek mi yoksa beklenen olumlu bir değişiklik gerçekleşmediği takdirde tırmandırıcı rol mü oynayacak? Kimilerinin, dolaylı yollardan "tek çözüm nükleer savaş ve kaos ortamı" ve sonrasında yeni bir dünya sistemi telkininde buldukları günümüzde tek çıkış yolu bu mu?
