The state visit of Rahmon to Kazakhstan has concluded

According to the press service of the President of Tajikistan, on May 3, President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon arrived in Kazakhstan on a state visit.

Emomali Rahmon traveled to Kazakhstan on a Somon Air airline plane, rather than on the recently acquired presidential aircraft.

The aircraft was personally acquired for Emomali Rahmon using budget funds. The cost of the aircraft was 92 million dollars. However, Rahmon has not yet used this plane.

During this trip, the president was accompanied by a government delegation consisting of leaders and representatives from various ministries. Rahmon was met in Astana by the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. The official meeting ceremony took place at the “Akorda” residence in the capital of Kazakhstan.

According to the press service of the President of Tajikistan, Emomali Rahmon stated that the negotiations were traditionally held in a constructive and trusting atmosphere and once again confirmed the relevance of maintaining regular political dialogue for the consistent development of relations between the countries.

“We attach great importance to mutually beneficial cooperation with Kazakhstan. We intend to further develop all aspects of Tajik-Kazakh relations based on strategic partnership methods. Today we adopted a historic document – the Declaration on Allied Cooperation, which will further strengthen the foundation of our bilateral relations,” said Emomali Rahmon.

It was reported that 20 cooperation documents were signed between the ministries and agencies of the two countries.

Several memoranda, roadmaps, and protocols on cooperation between various ministries and agencies were signed.

Also, as a result of the business forum held on May 3 in Astana during Emomali Rahmon’s state visit to Kazakhstan, agreements worth more than 2.6 billion dollars were signed between the countries.

More than 200 entrepreneurs and representatives of companies and enterprises from various sectors of activity of the two countries participated in the forum.
