Czech Republic is one of the main trade partners of Kazakhstan among the EU countries», said Roman Vassilenko.
During the conversation, the level of political dialog and trade and economic cooperation achieved in recent years was highly appreciated. The Deputy Minister noted that the official visit of Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala to Kazakhstan on April 23-24 this year, during which a number of intergovernmental documents were signed, gave an additional impetus to the development of the whole complex of traditionally friendly Kazakh-Czech relations.
The high level of political relations between Kazakhstan and the Czech Republic has created favorable conditions for the implementation of the potential in the trade and economic sphere. An effective mechanism in strengthening and developing cooperation between the two countries is the Intergovernmental Commission on Economic, Industrial, Scientific and Technical Cooperation, the next meeting of which is scheduled for autumn this year in Astana.
