Kyrgyzstan on the UN Security Council: What Does It Mean for Central Asia?

Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan describe their relationship as an alliance, and today that status is backed by concrete projects. Bilateral trade has exceeded $2 billion, with a target of $3 billion by 2030. The guest of the new episode of Life of a Diplomat is Kudaibergen Bazarbayev, Ambassador of Kyrgyzstan to Kazakhstan. We discussed joint efforts on water and energy, a major cross-border trade and logistics hub, the Kambarata-1 hydropower project, and how Central Asian countries are increasingly working together to address regional challenges.
