Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has proposed developing a Roadmap for
Economic Cooperation with Cyprus through 2028, during
expanded-format talks with Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides
attended by delegations from both countries, Trend reports via the

Council, as well as to organize regular exchanges of trade
missions.
The sides discussed prospects for strengthening cooperation in
trade and investment, transport and logistics, digital
communications and artificial intelligence, as well as the
financial sector. Significant potential was also noted for
expanding ties in culture, education, sports, and tourism.
