Kazakhstan's President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has called for renewed negotiations among nuclear-armed states as the country marks 35 years since the closure of the Semipalatinsk nuclear test site. He warned that global arms-control safeguards are weakening, urging world powers to return to the negotiating table and reaffirm commitments against nuclear testing and proliferation.

Why now: The anniversary of the test site's closure gives Kazakhstan's leader a prominent moment to press for nuclear disarmament amid rising global tensions.
