Abstract

This scientific article is devoted to the assessment of the principle of territorial integrity of states as a fundamental principle enshrined in the UN Charter. In the last of 90s century the Republic of Kazakhstan gained independence and sovereignty, declaring a sovereign state, seeking to provide territorial integrity and unitary. The concept of territorial integrity of states – is an element of national unity, the integrity of the territory of the state, the unity of nations, the prohibition of forcible seizure, attachment or dismemberment of the territory of a foreign state. Consequently armed intervention and all other forms of interference or other threats against the personality of the State or against to political, economic and cultural bases, it’s a violation of international law. Thus, in accordance with the UN Charter, the state territory should not be subject to purchase by another state by the threat or use of force. Any territorial acquisition, which is resulting from the threat or use of force should not be recognized as legal.
