China's foreign policy concepts regarding strategic borders and living space

The issue of the state border between Kazakhstan and China is one of the most relevant in the history of international relations. The political significance of this topic lies in ensuring national security for each State, preserving territorial integrity and independence.
It should be noted that as a subject of international relations, any state has 3 characteristics: territory, population and political organization. The geopolitical component of the state consists not only in the presence of a certain territory, but also in the political space. And the independence of the state and its security factor as the most important components reflect its politicality. A complex complex of national interests of the country and relations between them is hidden on the state border. Legally established and internationally recognized borders are a characteristic of any State. If the coat of arms, flag, anthem, constitution is determined by each country, the establishment of the state border line requires the conclusion of the necessary international contracts and their recognition by the world communities. In this regard, the strength and fairness of borders depend not only on the geographical characteristics of the demarcation network, but also on the understanding reached by both stakeholders.
After gaining independence, Kazakhstan became a full-fledged actor in international relations. One of the important issues for our state is security, the basis for its provision is the strengthening of the borders of the Republic.
