The President of Kyrgyzstan received the heads of delegations of the 24th Conference of Special Service Bodies of Turkic Speaking States (TYURKON), which is taking place in Cholpon-Ata city today.
He noted that deep historical ties, centuries-old experience of good neighborliness and fruitful cooperation between the countries and peoples create a solid foundation for strengthening interaction within the framework of TYURKON.
Sadyr Japarov stressed that the conference has become an important platform for cooperation and interaction in the field of security and for many years has been a popular platform for discussing a wide range of professional problems, sharing experience, developing the most effective models of cooperation in the field of security.
«Escalation of terrorist activity in the Middle East and Afghanistan, which has reached a scale that threatens the integrity of some states and threatens to spread far beyond the boundaries of these regions, requires special attention from our services. Obviously, it is possible to achieve significant results in the fight against these threats and challenges only through consistent and systematic work, joint and coordinated efforts,» the President said.
According to him, new times require new approaches to solving problems, overcoming challenges and threats.
Sadyr Japarov expressed confidence that the meaningful and constructive discussions on this platform will make a significant contribution to ensuring security in the Turkic-speaking space.
The special services of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Republic of Turkey signed the Protocol on the establishment of a Conference of Special Service Bodies of Turkic Speaking States (TYURKON) on May 29, 1998 in Istanbul (Turkey). The State Security Service of Uzbekistan joined TYURKON as a full member in 2018.
