To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they consider any part or all of Kazakhstan to be in Europe. [HL1261]
There is no internationally agreed formal definition of the word “Europe” and the scope of a definition depends on the context on which the word “Europe” is used.
Kazakhstan is a member of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe and, in line with other countries in the Central Asia region, it has an institutional relationship with the EU in the form of a partnership and co-operation agreement.
