Tajikistan and China have agreed to establish a Joint Working Group on Artificial Intelligence, following high-level talks between President Emomali Rahmon and President Xi Jinping in Astana earlier this week.
The new group will be formed under a Memorandum of Understanding signed between Tajikistan’s Agency for Innovation and Technology and China’s National Development and Reform Commission. It aims to deepen bilateral cooperation on AI development, with a focus on capacity-building, infrastructure, and practical applications that support economic progress and social welfare.
The memorandum reflects the two countries’ recognition of AI as a field of “global significance” with wide-reaching implications for human civilization. According to Tajikistan’s innovation agency, the agreement is rooted in a human-centric approach to AI, and emphasizes responsible development, mutual respect, and equality.
In addition to forming the working group, both nations committed to launching a permanent intergovernmental dialogue mechanism on AI and to enhancing cooperation in areas such as advanced AI research, natural language processing, and technical exchanges.
The agreement also includes plans for joint educational initiatives, involving universities, research institutions, and tech enterprises to grow professional expertise and strengthen innovation capacity in AI.
Currently, more than 700 companies with Chinese capital are operating in Tajikistan, underscoring the growing strategic and economic ties between the two countries.
