Abstract
The article examines the implementation of the provisions and principles of the Alma-Ata Declaration of 1978 and the Astana Declaration of 2018 from the standpoint of a critical analysis of the success of the world community in implementing the concept of primary health care and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. It is concluded that the Astana Declaration clarifies and concretizes certain provisions of the Alma-Ata Declaration on the political vision of primary health care (realization of the right to health to ensure health for all) and its applied essence. The political vision of primary health care is still relevant and even necessary to achieve the new principles of the World Health Organization and the Sustainable Development Goals.
