Kazakhstan ambassador hails bilateral partnership

Kazakhstan's Ambassador to China, Nuryshev Shakhrat, hailed the "unprecedented" strength of bilateral ties, noting both nations aim to double trade volume in the coming years while deepening cooperation under multilateral frameworks.

Speaking at a news conference at the Kazakh embassy in Beijing on Friday, Nuryshev praised the deepening cooperation between the two nations, particularly in connectivity and trade.

On current global trade tensions, Nuryshev argued that unilateral tariff hikes do not facilitate economic and trade development, but rather disrupt global supply chains and lead to the fragmentation of global trade. "Raising tariffs is not an effective measure and cannot resolve related issues," he said, emphasizing that any issues, particularly those in the trade sector, should be resolved through negotiation.
