The flag of the Organization of Turkic States, formerly known as the Turkic Council, is a light blue background with a sun with forty uniformly spaced rays with a light blue eight-pointed star and a crescent in the middle. The first flag was adopted at its 2nd Summit, which took place in Bishkek on August 23, 2012, and officially raised on October 12, 2012.
