Every nation has a figure whose name is associated with the turning points in its history.For modern Tajikistan, such a figure is the Founder of Peace and National Unity – the Leader of the Nation, President of the Republic of Tajikistan, Emomali Rahmon.

President’s Day is not just another date on the calendar. It is an expression of gratitude and respect for the leader who managed to transform a country that once faced serious challenges into a stable and respected state with a clear foreign policy and growing international authority.

Under his leadership, Tajikistan has gone a long way — from post-conflict recovery to sustainable economic and social development. Particular attention has been given to strengthening regional cooperation, as collaboration with neighboring Central Asian countries has become a key direction of the nation’s foreign policy.

Through balanced diplomacy and a peace-oriented approach, Tajikistan actively contributes to addressing shared regional issues — energy, water resources, transport corridors, and security. President Rahmon’s initiatives on sustainable use of water resources have been widely recognized by the United Nations, and Dushanbe has become a global platform for dialogue on sustainable development and climate action.

Today, Tajikistan stands as an example of an independent and peace-loving country that confidently promotes the values of mutual respect, good-neighborliness, and regional integration. This policy has made possible continuous economic growth, an improved investment climate, and a better quality of life for its citizens.

President’s Day is a day of respect for the person who united the nation, preserved statehood, and led the country toward progress. It is a day when every Tajik citizen realizes that peace, stability, and development are the result of a far-sighted vision and strong leadership.
