Kassym-Jomart Tokayev met with Antonio Costa, who is paying his first official visit to our country, at Akorda.

The President of Kazakhstan emphasized the symbolic significance of this visit, which coincides with the 10th anniversary of the signing of the Enhanced Partnership and Cooperation Agreement. Our country is the first country in the region to sign such a historic agreement with the European Union.

We support a strong and meaningful partnership based on mutual respect and understanding. Our political dialogue is developing rapidly in many areas that meet our common interests. In this regard, I highly appreciate the results of the EU-Kazakhstan Cooperation Council meeting held in Brussels a few days ago, - said the Head of State.
