FRIM Statement on the 11th Summit of the Organization of Turkic States The Fajristan Regional Integration Movement (FRIM) congratulates the Organization of Turkic States (OTS)-Türk Devletleri Teşkilatı Sekretaryası - Secretariat of Organization of Turkic States on the successful conclusion of its Eleventh Summit, held on November 6, 2024, in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, under the theme “Empowering the Turkic World: Economic Integration, Sustainable Development, Digital Future, and Security for All.” We extend our appreciation to the President of the Kyrgyz Republic, H.E. Sadyr Zhaparov, for hosting this important gathering and fostering unity and strategic vision among OTS Member States. During the Summit, the Heads of State demonstrated a powerful commitment to fostering deeper economic, digital, and environmental integration within the Turkic World. Notable decisions included: • Adoption of the Turkic Green Vision for a sustainable future, a significant step towards ecological collaboration. • Designation of Bishkek as the Digital Capital of the Turkic World for 2025, symbolizing the region’s commitment to digital transformation. • Ratification of the Turkic World Charter, a foundational document to enhance unity, and introduction of the Flag of the OTS as a shared symbol. • Significant acknowledgments with the Supreme Order of the Turkic World awarded to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, and the Alisher Navoi International Prize to Nobel laureate Prof. Aziz Sancar. Member States also signed groundbreaking agreements, such as the Digital Economy Partnership Agreement, MoUs on space-related activities, and initiatives to advance a Turkic Large Language Model and Turkic Green Finance. These initiatives reflect the organization’s forward-looking vision and will undoubtedly contribute to stronger economic and technological ties across the region. In addressing global challenges and regional stability, the Summit reinforced the role of the OTS as a unifying force. The Chairmanship’s transition from Kazakhstan to Kyrgyzstan, and the forthcoming Summits in Azerbaijan and Hungary in 2025, reflect the continuous evolution of the OTS toward a more interconnected Turkic World. The FRIM applauds the OTS for its unwavering commitment to solidarity, innovation, and sustainable development. We look forward to continued cooperation and shared goals among Fajristan countries including the Turkic World in promoting peace, prosperity, and progress for our regions.
