A harminc éves kazak alkotmány újabb politikai reformokra készül
Kazahsztán három évtizedes alkotmányos fennállását ünnepli, amelyben fontos szerepet játszanak a kormányzás, az emberi jogok és az állampolgári részvétel terén végrehajtott reformok.
00:03Because the Constitution is not the right of our country,
00:08and the country is not the right of our country.
00:21Every nation builds its statehood and future course on the foundation of a constitution.
00:26After the Soviet collapse, independent Kazakhstan shaped its legal system step by step,
00:31adopting its first basic law in 1993.
00:34But the main constitution was endorsed in 1995 in a nationwide referendum.
00:39Kazakhstan marks 30 years of its constitution this year,
00:43a milestone that highlights how the country empowers its citizens to amend the law
00:48and foster a new culture of justice.
00:50We have been in a long time during the crisis.
00:53We have a long time with the government,
00:55and we have a long time with the community.
00:58We have a long time and a half-week conversation.
01:00We have a long time with a long-term dialogue.
01:03In 2022, the first year we had a great referendum.
01:09Over the past 30 years, Kazakhstan's constitution has been amended six times.
01:29The most fundamental change came in 2022 when President Tokayev initiated a nationwide referendum.
01:36Since then, key national decisions have been made directly by the people.
01:40Among those shaping the amendments was Indira Aubakirova, a member of the Constitutional Reform Working Group.
02:06A key innovation of the constitutional reform was the introduction of a single seven-year presidential term, the first in the nation's history.
02:13The Constitution now guarantees the ombudsman status and fully abolishes the death penalty.
02:18These changes the OSCE office describes as the major step forward for human rights.
02:25The Constitution of Kazakhstan, its main strength is its evolutionary character.
02:32I think it's very important that the Constitution includes a prohibition for relatives of the President to take high positions in public administration.
02:40In this way, I think the Constitution of Kazakhstan differs from other constitutions.
02:58Among the notable changes was also the re-establishment of the constitutional court.
03:03Since 2023, citizens can contest laws they believe undermine their rights and freedoms.
03:10In the case of the Constitution though, it is more than 11000 citizens.
03:13These figures actually mean that citizens understand the key benefits and opportunities give constitutional control.
03:22This is a fundamentalist, which is related to the concept of the CKC,
03:26which is the case of the CKC.
03:28He takes the third form of the Constitution,
03:32which is the case of the Constitution.
03:35So, the Constitutional Court can give the rules to the Constitution.
03:43This gives the possibility, when the judge has the rules,
03:47to not leave the limits of the logic that the Constitutional Court made in its decision.
03:53Kazakhstan chose its democracy by letting people directly elect village, district or city mayors.
03:59In the past four years, all rural leaders have been chosen under the new rules,
04:03says member of the Majlis of the Parliament Yerkan Abel.
04:06The people have grown trust to the government.
04:09It started on the level of the city,
04:12now we have the elections of the region,
04:15and when I talk with the residents of the region,
04:19where they were elected,
04:20and the residents of the region, where they were elected,
04:23there are different отношения to the government.
04:25Now there is a very important task.
04:27It was written in the Constitution in 1995,
04:30but we didn't do it.
04:32It's a local government.
04:33Now we have the task to establish a separate law of the local government,
04:37so that the local government worked in Kazakhstan
04:41as it was thought of in 1995.
04:44The anniversary of Kazakhstan's Constitution
04:46reflects the country's journey since independence.
04:49Today it is more than a legal text,
04:51it's a symbol of the nation, a guide for reform,
