Issues on promotion of tolerance, mutual understanding and respect between different cultures and religions, solution of social integration problems should be a priority in the humanitarian basket of the OSCE, Hakimov said.

The continuing instability in Afghanistan bears a serious threat to the stability and security of Central Asia and the wider region, which tends to further exacerbate, he said.
