XUAR imports agricultural products from Kazakhstan. At the meeting, 16 documents worth more than 550 million US dollars were signed. Let's add that the trade turnover between the two countries reached more than $ 24 billion last year. And by 2025 it is planned to increase it to 35 billion.
Kairat Torebayev, Vice Minister of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan:
- Kazakhstan, as you know, produces eco-friendly, high-quality products. China is also interested in importing these products, but, unfortunately, due to the covid situation, the inspection of our enterprises by Chinese laboratories by the General Customs Administration did not take place. After they certify the production, they will give a certificate authorizing the export of goods to China. And we expect this certification in the near future.
