“Yesterday, we were received by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and met with the chairmen of the parliament chambers. Today, I am meeting you in Turkestan. Kazakhstan holds a special place for us. Our ancestor Khoja Ahmet Yasawi is a unique figure in the Islamic world. His works and noble heritage are known globally. Yasawi’s teachings have influenced Anatolia and the Balkans. The wisdom of this scholar and his legacy of learning connect our countries,” stated Numan Kurtulmush, Chairman of the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye.
