The president also said that given the abundance of oil and gas in Kazakhstan, Pakistan’s state-owned companies can explore and invest in Kazakh oil and gas sector.

President Arif Alvi underscored the need for establishing air and land connectivity between the two Countries, as Pakistan can provide Kazakhstan the shortest route through the newly developed Gwadar port.

The president noted with pleasure that defense cooperation has been strengthening steadily.

Dr Arif Alvi also appreciated the principled position taken by Kazakhstan for non-discriminatory expansion of the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG)’s membership.

The president underlined that Pakistan is extending e-visa facilitation to 175 countries including Kazakhstan, and urged Kazakhstan to consider introducing visa easement process for Pakistani tourists and businessmen as well.
