VietNamNet Bridge – State President Truong Tan Sang and his
delegation arrived in Astana on September 9 for their two-day visit to
Kazakhstan at the invitation of President Nursultan Nazarbayev.
This is a follow-up to the
Kazakhstani leader’s visit to Vietnam in late October last year.
President Sang was welcomed at
the airport by Minister of Industry and Technology Isekesev Orentaevich,
Kazakhstani ambassador to Vietnam Nurlan Yermekbayyev, Vietnamese ambassador to
Kazakhstan Nguyen Van Hoa, Vietnamese embassy staff and representatives of the
Vietnamese community in Kazakhstan.
President Sang’s visit aims to
strengthen the traditional friendship and multifaceted cooperation between the
two countries, especially in mining, oil and gas exploitation, economics and
trade.
The two sides will kick-start
negotiations on a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Vietnam and Customs
Alliance members including Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan with the aim of
lifting two-way trade turnover to a higher level on par with the fine development
of political relations.
President Sang will also attend
the launch of “Vietnam’s Culture Days in Kazakhstan” to mark the 20th
anniversary of bilateral diplomatic ties.
