Dear Kazakhstanis

 

I heartily congratulate you on Defender of the Fatherland Day!

This holiday has a special significance not only for military personnel, but also for our entire society.

The defense of the country is a sacred duty of every citizen, a vivid manifestation of genuine patriotism.

Continuous improvement of defense capability is one of the strategic tasks of the state. The Kazakh army should be ready at any moment to stand resolutely in defense of the Motherland. The Armed Forces act as a reliable guarantor of the sovereignty and integrity of the country, a bulwark of unity and confidence of the people in the future.

Currently, military personnel continue the glorious traditions of heroic ancestors, protecting the tranquility on our land. Their noble security service is an inspiring example for the younger generation.

I express my gratitude to all soldiers and officers for their loyalty to the oath and impeccable performance of duty.

May the power of our valiant army be strengthened and the foundations of our state will always be unshakable!

I wish the servicemen, veterans and all compatriots good health, prosperity and a peaceful sky over their heads!
