Kazakhstan aims to increase transit freight volumes. In his state-of-the-nation address, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev identified the development of the country’s transport and logistics potential as one of its key priorities. Alongside road and rail routes, Kazakhstan is also seeking to make more effective use of its aviation capabilities.

These measures would help speed up cargo handling, improve service quality and enhance Kazakhstan’s competitiveness in the international freight transport market.
