President of Kazakhstan Kasim-Jomart Tokaev said that the Organization of Turkic States is becoming an influential and influential player in the international arena.

The head of Kazakhstan stated this in an interview with Azerbaijan's APA agency on the eve of his visit to Baku.

The leader of Kazakhstan emphasized the great potential of TDT member states .

"Here are just a few numbers: the total territory is about 4.5 million square kilometers, the total gross domestic product exceeds 1.5 trillion dollars, and the population is more than 160 million people. The volume of goods exchange within the TDT reached 42.3 billion dollars, and the total trade turnover of Turkic countries with the world is about 1.3 trillion dollars. All the countries of the organization confidently enter the world economic processes, are represented in the main international organizations and work actively.

"In this regard, I cannot but emphasize the work of other organizations that are part of the TDT family, such as TURKSOY, the Academy of Turkish Languages, the Foundation for the Culture and Heritage of Turkic Peoples. They are not only carrying out a humanitarian and educational mission, but also bringing a huge spiritual burden to the life of our people," added Tokaev .
