Putin emphasized that relations between the two countries are rooted in centuries of historical experience, cultural affinity and mutual trust.

“Russia and Kazakhstan are bound by strong ties of friendship, good-neighborliness and mutually beneficial cooperation, underpinned by a shared history and the close intertwining of cultures and destinies. The strategic partnership and alliance between the two countries rest on the unshakeable principles of mutual respect and trust, serving as an important factor in ensuring peace, stability and socio-economic development across the entire Eurasian region. I would like to emphasize that our country holds deep respect for a strong and prosperous Kazakhstan, with its effective political system supported by the people,” he noted.
