Welcoming the guests and participants of the session Mr. Tokayev noted that was the first session of the Secretariat after the III Congress. "I believe this is good opportunity for us to take stock of the situation and discuss an action plan through the end of 2012. The III congress which benefited from the technical support of the United Nations agencies welcomed more than 80 delegations from 35 countries of the world. The growing interest of the international community to our congress is an incontrovertible evidence of the fact that our country is a recognized well established dialogue platform. And our congress is an important part of the process of the inter-faith dialogue's development. To my mind this is a good sign of confidence and trust to our Congress", K. Tokayev noted.
