The assistance includes logistics, food supplies, and field hospitals with medical personnel
The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan, Erlan Zhetybaev, stated that the country joined the Council of Peace without the need to make any financial contributions.
He emphasized that participation in the Council aligns with Kazakhstan's interests and supports the foreign policy aimed at developing dialogue, promoting international security, and strengthening multilateral cooperation.
According to Zhetybaev, the country's president described this decision as a timely initiative focused on achieving real results. "Peace should be built not on empty declarations but on concrete actions," he added.
In response to questions about possible financial contributions, the Foreign Ministry representative clarified that Kazakhstan did not make any contributions upon joining the Council.
"Kazakhstan joined the Council of Peace without financial obligations. The voluntary contribution of one billion dollars mentioned in the charter is not a condition for membership," Zhetybaev noted.
Regarding rumors about a possible deployment of military contingents to Gaza, Zhetybaev urged reliance on official sources, specifying that only humanitarian aspects are being discussed.
"The president stated Kazakhstan's readiness to support international stabilization forces, send medical personnel with field hospitals, and provide observers for civil-military coordination," he added.
Additionally, Kazakhstan plans to provide humanitarian aid in the form of food, allocate 500 educational grants for Palestinian students for five years at Kazakhstani universities, and share its experience in e-government.
The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Economy, Serik Zhumangarin, also noted that a significant portion of the assistance to Gaza will be provided in this manner.
"We are ready to provide food or organize the necessary logistics," he emphasized.
It is worth recalling that in February, at the first meeting of the Council of Peace, Trump thanked the participants for their contributions to efforts to ensure stability and recovery in Gaza.
Introducing the leaders of the participating countries, Trump referred to Kazakhstan as a "wonderful and rich country."
It should also be noted that in January, the president of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, signed the charter of the Council of Peace, established at the initiative of Donald Trump.
Tokayev had previously received an official invitation from Trump to become one of the founders of the Council of Peace for Gaza.
The Council is expected to engage in strategic management, mobilization of international resources, and oversight of the fulfillment of commitments for the peaceful development of the region.
According to Donald Trump, the participating countries of the Council have already raised 7 billion dollars.
