  1. “In that regard, we welcome the Secretary- General's initiative to use the tool of preventive diplomacy more effectively. We firmly believe that only through joint efforts can we make progress in solving Afghanistan's political and economic problems and ensuring security both in that country and all over the world. Lastly, I wish our brother Afghan people peace and prosperity.”

  2. “We are ready to consider educating Afghan students in our country's educational institutions with the financial support of foreign donors, and we have the potential, and the scientific and educational foundations, to make that happen. For example, more than 300 Afghan students are currently studying at various universities in Kyrgyzstan. In conclusion, I would like to note that we support the commitment of all Central Asian countries to joint long-term cooperation with Afghanistan, and together with our international partners, we stand ready to cooperate fully to meet the challenges we are facing. Kyrgyzstan acknowledges the importance of coordinated action and a regional approach on the part of the international community in creating a zone of peace, cooperation and prosperity in Central Asia and Afghanistan.”

  3. “On that front, we are participating in the implementation of a five-nation project for the construction of a China- Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway, and we are supporting the construction of a railway within the framework of the Economic Cooperation Organization along the Iran-Afghanistan-Tajikistan-Kyrgyzstan-China route. We are building an alternative North-South road in Kyrgyzstan that will shorten the route connecting the highways of our northern areas with Afghanistan and Pakistan. In the field of subregional economic integration, Kyrgyzstan is promoting an initiative to establish a tripartite Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan- Afghanistan agricultural-industrial consortium. Where establishing peace and stability in Afghanistan is concerned, we believe that education will play a major role in restoring peace in the country.”

  4. “Some very important regional projects were adopted as a result of the forum, but they can be successfully implemented only if the international community provides the necessary financial support. Kyrgyzstan views the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan as an important economic partner in the region first and foremost, and we are making every effort to implement the Central Asia-South Asia Electricity Transmission and Trade project as soon as possible. We firmly believe that its successful implementation will bring peace as well as light and energy to Afghanistan. I would like to take this opportunity to briefly touch on Kyrgyzstan's initiatives related to Afghanistan. In the area of transport infrastructure, we have supported connecting the road and rail networks of the countries of the region with those of Afghanistan.”

  5. “Along with measures to counter the illegal production and trafficking of drugs and combat terrorism and radicalism, it is extremely important to pursue joint efforts to integrate Afghanistan's economy with those of other countries in the region, including the States of Central Asia, by expanding cooperation and improving regional infrastructure, trade, investment, transit and transport projects. The seventh ministerial-level Regional Economic Cooperation Conference on Afghanistan was held in Ashgabat on 15 November 2017, with the theme of deepening connectivity and expanding trade through investment in infrastructure and improved mutual cooperation.”

  6. “Kyrgyzstan supports such initiatives aimed at establishing peace and achieving national reconciliation in Afghanistan, including strengthening confidence-building measures among the countries of the region, the joint implementation of various projects in Afghanistan, support for alternative ways of developing Afghanistan, and others. There can be no question that the production and export of Afghan opium are two of the main issues plaguing Afghanistan and countries in the region. As we see it, all possible support should be given to the initiative of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime promoting Afghanistan's alternative development among regional and international partners. In that context, my country fully supports the outcomes and decisions of the international conference held in Ashgabat on 16 and 17 November of last year.”

  7. “In that regard, Kyrgyzstan has always supported the further consolidation of common efforts to develop coordinated approaches to resolving current issues of regional cooperation and development, assisting the peaceful development of Afghanistan and promoting economic integration at the regional and interregional level. We commend the efforts made within the framework of the Heart of Asia-Istanbul process and the decisions taken following the seventh Ministerial Conference of Foreign Ministers, on the theme "Security and Economic Connectivity towards a Strengthened Heart of Asia Region", held in Baku at the end of 2017.”

  8. “I would like to note that since gaining independence, all the countries of Central Asia have made significant investments in improving railway and vehicle transport infrastructure. However, we also have to acknowledge that at present we have been taking an exclusively country-specific approach, and because of that, we are missing opportunities to effectively tackle our common problems by coordinating efforts at the regional level. We believe that with a regional approach, these projects would help to expand trade and have a positive impact on the social and economic situation in the region.”

  9. “We believe that the countries of Central Asia are ready to engage actively in the process of building peace and stability in Afghanistan. We have comparative advantages and the potential for complementarity in our economies. However, there are problems related to inadequate transport infrastructure and limited access to external regions and markets. All of us, and all of the Central Asian countries above all, need to genuinely consolidate our cooperation and efforts on a basis of good-neighbourly relations in the interests of furthering the sustainable development of the countries of the region, including Afghanistan. We are also well aware that the development of major regional cooperation is chiefly a task for the Central Asian countries themselves.”

  10. “In our view, therefore, the international community must come up with a realistic approach to the problem. In that regard, we support Uzbekistan's proposal to hold in an international conference in Tashkent in March on a peaceful settlement of the situation in Afghanistan, as Foreign Minister Kamilov of Uzbekistan just outlined. I am convinced that within the framework of that conference it will be possible to discuss new mechanisms for a peaceful settlement of the situation in Afghanistan in detail. We share the view that the security and development of Afghanistan and the whole region are closely interrelated. Without security there can be no development and without development there can be no security.”

  11. “We must, above all, reach a consensus among the permanent members of the Security Council. Time has shown that the only way to ensure peace and stability in Afghanistan is by resolving its complex situation by exclusively political means, holding peace talks and achieving national reconciliation. However, we have to admit that there has been little tangible progress in that regard and certainly not as much as we expected. The bloodshed among the warring parties continues, as does their insistence on tactics demanding preconditions, making the start of peace talks almost impossible. Unfortunately, such a stalemate is liable to continue indefinitely, resulting in the further suffering and deaths of Afghan civilians, including women and children.”

  12. “Mr. Abdyldayev (Kyrgyzstan) (spoke in Russian): 1 would first like to sincerely congratulate our brother country of Kazakhstan on its assumption of the presidency of the Security Council this month, and to express my confidence that the Republic of Kazakhstan will make a worthy contribution to resolving the difficult challenges we are facing. The role and importance of the United Nations in stabilizing the situation in Afghanistan and strengthening regional and international cooperation are invaluable. The subject ofour meeting, which clearly encompasses the priority areas of our cooperation, our common challenges and the goals that we are working towards, is clear proof of that. We are all aware that if we are to achieve peace in Afghanistan, the desires of the Afghan people and their Government of National Unity are clearly not enough.”
