ASTANA, Kazakhstan, February 27. Serbian
President Aleksandar Vučić invited President of Kazakhstan
Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to pay a visit to Serbia, Trend reports via the Kazakh
president’s press service.
Vučić made the invitation during narrow-format talks with
Tokayev in Astana, emphasizing that the two countries are bound by
truly strategic relations.
“I am confident that our friendship will reach a new level
through stronger cooperation in artificial intelligence,
information technology, and energy. I would be pleased to welcome
you to Serbia in the near future,” he said.
Tokayev, in turn, noted that Kazakhstan considers Serbia a very
important strategic partner in Europe.
“We have done much to strengthen our cooperation in many areas,
primarily in the economy, as well as in the humanitarian and
cultural spheres. A direct flight between Astana and Belgrade has
been launched, and our trade relations are developing very
successfully. More than 60 Serbian companies operate productively
in Kazakhstan. We share common approaches to key international
issues,” Tokayev said.
He added that a solid and effective foundation for bilateral
cooperation has been created and expressed confidence that Vučić’s
visit would provide additional momentum to the friendly relations
between the two nations.
Tokayev previously visited Belgrade on his first official visit
on November 18-19, 2024. Serbia's presidents have visited
Kazakhstan four times, three of which were official state
visits.
