CORROBORATED

Multiple sources confirm the second event took place in Almaty. TASS and other web results explicitly state the second forum was held in Almaty 'last year' (relative to the report date).

Claim 2: “the results of the 2024 Moscow and 2025 Almaty forums show that much has been achieved”

DISPUTED

There is a direct contradiction in the dates provided by the sources. Claim 2 suggests a 2024 Moscow and 2025 Almaty sequence. However, multiple sources (TASS, IR-PRESS) state the first forum was in Moscow in November 2024 and the second was in Almaty 'last year'. If the current context is 2025, 'last year' would be 2024, contradicting the claim that the Almaty forum was in 2025.
