"Both the EU and Kazakhstan could derive important benefits from deeper cooperation. The European Parliament supports this objective, while stressing that economic cooperation must go hand in hand with political cooperation and must be based on the political will to implement and uphold common values. Negotiations were launched in June 2011 for a new, enhanced EU-Kazakhstan agreement to replace the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement currently in force. In February this year the President of Kazakhstan signed several laws aimed at improving the legal basis for labour relations, workers’ rights and social dialogue and strengthening the independence of the judiciary. Proper relations between the Union and Kazakhstan are of fundamental importance, as is the strengthening of political and economic cooperation, including strategic areas such as human rights, the environment, energy, trade and transport, as well as the fight against terrorism, organised crime and drug trafficking.
I firmly believe that, both for the Kazakh leadership and the wider public, there is a major justification and a benefit in adopting these measures, which will help to restore stability and security, and to revive the country’s international standing."@en1
