Russian President Vladimir Putin and Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev met informally on Tuesday ahead of their formal summit scheduled for the following day. The informal discussions were held at the Kremlin, with both leaders expressing optimism about their growing bilateral cooperation.
In his opening remarks, President Putin welcomed Tokayev, emphasising the importance of the ongoing year’s cooperative activities between the two countries.
"Today, we'll take advantage of an informal atmosphere to discuss matters of mutual importance," Putin said.
"Tomorrow, along with our colleagues, we'll review the full scope of our bilateral relationships and explore opportunities for the future," he added.
President Tokayev reciprocated Putin’s sentiments, highlighting the strong partnership between Russia and Kazakhstan. He described their relationship as one of "strategic partnership and allied relations," adding that the two countries collaborate effectively across nearly all sectors.
"There are virtually no areas where we do not work together," Tokayev remarked, underscoring the breadth of cooperation between the two nations.
The formal summit on Wednesday is expected to solidify these ties further, with the leaders set to sign a series of bilateral documents. One of the key events will be the Russia-Kazakhstan Interregional Cooperation Forum, which will be addressed via videoconference.
Following the summit, the leaders will attend a state dinner hosted by President Putin.
The meeting between Putin and Tokayev comes at a time of increasing collaboration between Russia and Kazakhstan, particularly in areas such as trade, energy, and regional security. Both countries have also focused on strengthening their positions within the broader geopolitical landscape, as well as deepening their economic and political ties in the face of global challenges.
As the two leaders continue their discussions, the upcoming summit is expected to further enhance the already strong bilateral relationship and provide new opportunities for collaboration in the future.
