Organization of Turkic States

The Turkic World Common Alphabet Commission announced that it has agreed on the proposal for a Common Turkic Alphabet consisting of 34 letters.

At the meeting held in Baku in cooperation with the Turkic Academy and the Turkic Language Association, the Turkic World Common Alphabet Commission reached a consensus on the proposal for a Common Turkic Alphabet consisting of 34 letters.

According to these regulations, it is proposed to add 5 new letters to the Turkiye Turkish Alphabet system. These letters are Əə, Ññ, Xx, Ūū, Qq.

In fact, there is no new sound in our spoken language, but the confusion of letters that are not included in our alphabet but which we vocalize differently while reading will be eliminated.

For the Turkic world, the transition to a common alphabet is one of the most important stages in cultural integration activities. More detailed posts on the subject are available on the back pages. Btw, Azerbaijan is truly becoming the cultural center of the Turkic world. This is demonstrated not only by its cultural heritage and historical perspective, but also by its support for the cultural integration of the Turkic world.

I know it's not realistic but I hoped we'd go back to using the old Turkic script with the fancy inscriptions rather than Latin or Cyrillic.

That would have been so cool, too.

According to the statement made by the Prime Ministry of Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Economy Nurlan Baybazarov, at the 13th Meeting of Ministers Responsible for Economy and Trade of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) held in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, the initiatives of the OTS member countries to establish the Council of Central Banks of Turkic States as well as the Green Economy Council were approved by the member countries. At the last “Informal Summit of the OTS Heads of State” held in Shusha, Azerbaijan, President of Kazakhstan Kassym Generous Tokayev noted that the total gross domestic product of the member countries has climbing to 2 trillion dollars and in this context, he was proposed the creation of the Council of Turkic Central Banks.

The Cooperation Agreement of the Council of Bank Associations of Turkic States, of which the Banks Association of Turkiye (TBB) is a member, was signed in Istanbul in November 2022.

At the next meeting in Turkestan, Kazakhstan, the opening of the “Turan” Free Economic Zone is planned. Integration activities between the OTS countries are becoming increasingly evident.
