The leadership of the General Staff, State Defence Affairs Committee, State Border Service and National Guard all presented reports.

The General Staff met all its goals for 2016, Duishenbayev said, calling for deputy unit commanders who oversee their units' combat readiness to bear personal responsibility for their duties.

Much remains to be done before the military achieves its goal of fielding modern, efficient forces by 2020, Duishenbayev said.
