The purpose of the study is to show the crux of the legal framework of the Republic of Kazakhstan in external security. The paper presents the main aspects of international legal treaties, documents, and agreements to ensure the external national interests of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which facilitate coordinated cooperation with other states. The main methods of the study include research, as well as a thorough analysis of laws and regulations. Comparison of the legislative framework of Kazakhstan with the laws of the USA and Russia makes it possible to identify the most practical component used in ensuring the external security of these states. As a result, imperfections and peculiar conflicts in the laws of Kazakhstan and Russia were revealed. Thus, the fundamental laws concerning external and national security require certain improvements and changes, in particular, the addition of new concepts in external security.
