European Union Sanctions Envoy: EU has positive agenda for Kazakhstan

The European Union is set to enhance cooperation with Kazakhstan, as announced by International Special Envoy for the Implementation of EU Sanctions David O’Sullivan during a press conference in Astana. Overall, the EU has a positive agenda of cooperation with Kazakhstan. During the meeting with journalists, the foreign envoy highlighted that the parties are implementing a number of joint ambitious projects and have promising plans for the future, particularly, in the field of green technologies and transport.

“The meetings today were conducted in a constructive and positive fashion and we have agreed technical follow-up meetings in order to work on how we can work more closely. And it’s very important I think both sides have agreed that we should not allow this sanction issue to become an obstacle to the development of those closer economic relations. This was a follow-up to the visit we had last April also with the US colleagues,” O’Sullivan said.
