For a long time, Uzbeks and Kazakhs have been living in harmony, providing support to each other. Over the past two years, due to joint efforts, a completely new atmosphere of political trust has been created.
This was largely facilitated by the mutual visits of the heads of states, Shavkat Mirziyoyev and Nursultan Nazarbayev.
In this context, the First Uzbekistan-Kazakhstan Interregional Cooperation Forum, held last in Shymkent, showed the wide, yet untapped potential of Uzbek-Kazakh economic cooperation.
Bilateral trade in 2018 increased by 47 percent and reached $3.022 billion.
The Year of Uzbekistan in Kazakhstan in 2018 is a example of the development of bilateral cultural ties , organised for the first time in the history of many years of cooperation. Uzbeks and Kazakhs are actively working to organise the Year of Kazakhstan in Uzbekistan this year.
