The issue of organizing an exhibition dedicated to ancient Turkic writings is being worked out. This is a good opportunity to learn more about our common culture and introduce it to those who are interested in the history of the Turkic civilization.

For example, in August of this year, a presentation of a book is planned, which will include the works of Azerbaijani writers about Abai. And this month it is planned to issue a postage stamp with the image of Zhambyl Zhabayev.

In addition, the Azerbaijani side accepted our invitation to participate in the international festival of artisans scheduled for August. Also, our Azerbaijani colleagues are ready to finance the organization of historical and cultural projects in Kazakhstan.

We intend to strengthen cultural ties with Azerbaijan and other Turkic countries through the Organization of Turkic States, TURKSOY and other areas. This year we plan to hold the Days of Culture of Kazakhstan in Azerbaijan.

Our artists and creative teams are looking forward to this opportunity. And we will make every effort to create more opportunities for the realization of the potential of our cultural workers” the message reads.
