The exhibition «The First President of the Republic of Kazakhstan – Elbasy N.A. Nazarbayev for a nuclear-free world»One of the first steps of Independent Kazakhstan in the fight against a nuclear-free world was the closure of the Semipalatinsk nuclear test site. The Semipalatinsk testing area was created by a decision of the Council of Ministers of the USSR on August 21, 1947. The first nuclear explosion was carried out in the early morning of August 29, 1949. Explosions and tests of atomic weapons affected people's health and the environment. The last explosion was carried out on October 19, 1989. In this year, the famous Kazakhstani public figure Olzhas Suleimenov created the Nevada-Semipalatinsk movement, uniting supporters of the cessation of nuclear tests around the world.

On August 29, 1991, by the Decree of the President of Kazakhstan N.A. Nazarbayev, the testing area was officially closed. «Kazakhstani strength and power are not in demonstrating nuclear muscles, but in rejection from it. And this has become the core of our statehood – popular wisdom, elevated to the rank of a nationwide idea. Virtually, on August 29, 1991, a new era of global nuclear history began» the Head of State said about this event. This document was the first international act of sovereign Kazakhstan.

Recognizing the merits of Kazakhstan, which voluntarily abandoned the world's fourth nuclear potential, the UN General Assembly declared August 29 as International Day against Nuclear Tests. This was the first time in world history that a nuclear test site was closed in accordance with the will of people. Kazakhstan has become the leader of the global anti-nuclear movement and the epicentre of peace.

The exhibition aim: to show the role and place of Kazakhstan in the world community, the contribution of Kazakhstan to nuclear safety.

Documentary materials of the Archive of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Committee for the International Anti-Nuclear movement "Nevada-Semipalatinsk" and books from the Central Scientific Library "Gylym Ordasy" will cause great interest.

The exhibition will last until 20 December 2019.
