Nazarbayev wins special prize for his merits to peoples of Eurasia

The organizers made a decision to institute the new international nomination For Contribution to Promotion of the Ideas of Peace and Security in the Eurasian Continent - Wise Power - Wise Power of Eurasia. In order to select a nominee, the organizers requested the authoritative international organization the Eurasian Academy of Television and Radio to name the candidate.

«The international community decided to give this award to our esteemed contemporary. The person who doesn't simply tell us what's going to happen. Instead, he creates the future (...) This person's contribution is unique as he has created the political philosophy of Eurasianism.

According to organizers, the institution of the nomination is timely and relevant given the geopolitical processes that are underway in the Eurasian space. It is noted that the award will be given for special merits to the peoples of Eurasia.
