Kazakhstan and Russia are set to increase their trade
turnover to $30 billion. To achieve this, both countries plan to enhance
cooperation. Bilateral talks were held in Moscow between Kazakh Prime Minister
Olzhas Bektenov and Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin. Trade between the
two countries has been growing, reaching nearly $28 billion last year. The
agro-industrial complex has shown strong results in bilateral cooperation, while
collaboration in the transit and transport sector has also been effective.
Cargo flow along the eastern branch of the North-South international corridor
has risen to 2.4 million tonnes. The parties emphasized the importance of
maintaining positive dynamics in mutual trade. They also discussed joint
projects in the energy, space, and industry sectors.
