China-Kazakhstan partnership unlocks regional opportunities

Envoy highlights cooperation boosting Eurasian connectivity and prosperity

The further deepening of Kazakhstan-China cooperation serves the interests not only of the two countries but also of the whole of Central Asia, said Shakhrat Nuryshev, Kazakh ambassador to China, while expressing hope that the two countries can make a joint contribution to strengthening Eurasian connectivity, enhancing regional stability and promoting sustainable development.

"China is not only our largest neighbor but also one of the world's leading centers of economic growth. It is also Kazakhstan's reliable strategic partner," Nuryshev said in a recent interview ahead of President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev's visit to China to attend the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance. "In recent years, Kazakhstan-China relations have reached an unprecedented level of dynamism."
