For millennia, Kazakhstan has stood at a vital junction along the ancient Silk Road, its strategic location forging a link between Europe and Asia. Today, the Central Asian nation is leveraging its rich legacy as a central transport route as it reestablishes itself as a key gateway for facilitating intercontinental trade, cultural exchange, and cross-border cooperation. &nbsp;

Europe’s fervent commitment to decarbonisation is laudable, yet its current approach to expanding renewable production shows concerning signs of over-reliance on a few select energy sources that are prone to disruption and intermittency. <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/ddn-20250319-1#:~:text=Wind%20and%20hydro%20power%20accounted%20for%20more%20than,%288.1%25%29%20and%20only%20around%200.5%25%20from%20geothermal%20energy.">Eurostat data </a>from 2024 indicates that wind and hydro power alone accounted for over two-thirds of the total electricity generated from renewable sources (39.1% and 29.9% respectively) in the EU, leaving the continent vulnerable to supply chain disruptions and regional weather variations.

In this challenging landscape, Kazakhstan plays a unique role bridging East and West, facilitating dialogue and exchanges globally. &nbsp;

Artificial intelligence (AI) is often described as a disruptive force, reshaping industries, economies, and the very nature of work. Yet, beyond its technological advances, AI presents the world with something even more powerful: a rare opportunity to unite.Historically, the introduction of breakthrough technologies has widened global inequalities−placing the most advanced tools in the hands of a few while leaving others to catch up. Today, the world stands at a crossroads; AI can either reinforce old divisions or become the great equalizer of our time. The choice lies in collective action. &nbsp;

Under the auspices of the President of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, the Astana International Forum 2025 will take place from May 29 to 30, as it continues its mission of fostering cross-border dialogues on international diplomacy and cooperation.

The ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles, which began in early January, are another indication of the severe impact of climate change. Southern California has experienced an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/how-did-the-los-angeles-fires-get-so-out-of-control" target="_blank">unprecedented</a>&nbsp;dry period, which is the driest start to the rainy season on record. This has led to extremely dry vegetation, providing ample fuel for wildfires.
