China and Kazakhstan have reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening their permanent comprehensive strategic partnership, pledging to boost cooperation across key sectors during the second China-Kazakhstan Foreign Ministers' Strategic Dialogue in Beijing.
Wang highlighted that under the strategic leadership of President Xi Jinping and President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, the China-Kazakhstan relationship has grown stronger, with record-breaking trade volumes and major projects advancing in fields such as new energy and connectivity. Wang called for accelerating joint efforts on the Belt and Road Initiative, enhancing multilateral cooperation, and pushing bilateral ties toward new achievements.
He emphasized that China views Kazakhstan as a priority in its neighborhood diplomacy and will continue to support Kazakhstan on matters concerning core interests.
Nurtleu, in turn, reaffirmed Kazakhstan's deep trust in China, stressing that the relationship remains unaffected by global geopolitical tensions. He noted that China has become Kazakhstan’s largest trading partner, and expressed confidence in ushering in the “next golden 30 years” of bilateral relations.
The two foreign ministers agreed to expand cooperation in energy, trade, artificial intelligence, and the digital economy, while strengthening regional security by combating terrorism, extremism, and separatism.
Both sides also pledged to coordinate closely within international organizations such as the United Nations and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, supporting free trade and multilateralism.
Following the dialogue, Wang and Nurtleu signed several agreements, including a memorandum of understanding between the two foreign ministries, solidifying their intent to elevate the China-Kazakhstan partnership to even greater heights.
