Kazakhstan and the Czech Republic intend to enhance their
cooperation, with the energy sector being one of the promising areas of
partnership. The two countries are focusing on opportunities for joint projects
in renewable energy. In an exclusive interview with the Silk Way TV channel,
Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský emphasized the Czech Republic’s commitment
to launching and developing new production facilities in Kazakhstan. A Czech
automotive plant is already in operation in the country, and the Czech Republic
is also ready to supply aircraft. Overall, bilateral trade has been gaining
momentum recently, as reflected in the figures.
«Kazakhstan plays a very important role in our foreign
policy, given the strength of our economic ties, ongoing projects and planned
projects. The turnout of our economic exchange was €1.6 billion last year. It
seems to me that this year we will make similar and maybe better numbers. So,
there is a wide range of sectors where this cooperation is really flourishing.
I’m here to discover more, and political dialogue is always very important for
business ties,» said Lipavský.
According to him, Kazakhstan and the Czech Republic are
ready to continue their cooperation in the fields of science and education.
Additionally, the countries have successfully launched a joint project to
reintroduce the Przewalski’s horse breed in Kazakhstan. The first batch of
animals was sent from Prague to Kazakhstan this summer. The Czech Republic
intends to continue providing assistance in reviving the breed’s population.
