Kazakhstan, Israel aim to strengthen cooperation

Kazakhstan and Israel aim to strengthen trade, economic, and investment cooperation. Presidents Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and Isaac Herzog discussed these issues on the sidelines of the CICA Summit in Baku. Tokayev noted that the Israeli President’s visit to Astana in April gave fresh momentum to bilateral relations. Herzog, in turn, emphasized that Kazakhstan’s development opens up new opportunities for partnership. He also welcomed Kazakhstan’s accession to the Board of Peace. The two leaders exchanged views on international issues, including the situation in the Middle East. Tokayev reaffirmed Kazakhstan's principled position on the need to de-escalate tensions and resolve conflicts exclusively through diplomatic means.
