MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Kazakh counterpart Kassym-Jomart Tokayev will discuss bilateral military-technical cooperation and other issues during the Russian leader’s visit to Kazakhstan, Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov said on Tuesday.
"The negotiations will be held in two formats – first one-on-one and then in an expanded format," Ushakov said at a press briefing. "During the talks, key aspects of the further development of Russian-Kazakh relations will be discussed – in political, trade, economic, military-technical, cultural, humanitarian and other areas."
"The leaders will also exchange opinions on the key regional and international issues," he noted.
Ushakov reminded that this year Moscow and Astana hold a "parallel chairmanship" in two organizations.
"We, Russia, hold the chairmanship in the Collective Security Treaty Organization [CSTO] and Kazakhstan <…> in the Eurasian Economic Union [EAEU]," he said.
"Cooperation within the framework of these organizations will be also discussed during the talks," Ushakov added.
