Nursultan Nazarbayev's Role on Providing Regional and Global Security as an Influential Political Leader: A Case Study of His Mediation Role in Russian-Turkish Crisis in 2015

Abstract

Since gaining independence in 1991, there has been a colossal role of the first President of Kazakhstan- Nursultan Nazarbayev, on the foundation and development of Kazakhstan, on the process of setting up international organizations in the post-Soviet geography and on the formation of the multi-vector foreign policy of Kazakhstan. The article examines the role of the Nazarbayev’s successful international activities as an experienced negotiator and mediator in resolving international conflicts and crises. In this context, his peacekeeping mission on solving the Russian-Turkish crisis in 2015 has been examined by revealing his influence on providing regional and global security. In the first part of the article, the early life and political career of Nursultan Nazarbayev are examined by describing his character as a person, as an influential political leader and an outstanding statesman. The second part, in the post-Soviet period, Kazakhstan's foreign policy as an independent republic, and its contribution to providing regional and global security are explained. In this process, the meaningful role of the Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, President of the Republic of Kazakhstan is evaluated as well. In the third part, the Russian-Turkish crisis, its reasons, and Nursultan Nazarbayev's mediation role are evaluated.
