This underscores the strategic importance the United States attaches to cooperation with Kazakhstan and all of Central Asia. I would also like to acknowledge your personal contribution to the development of bilateral ties. Kazakhstan is firmly committed to further deepening its expanded strategic partnership with the United States of America. I take this opportunity to convey my best wishes and sincere respect to US President Donald Trump. I look forward to meeting with him later this year and would like to express my gratitude for the invitation to participate in the G20 summit in Miami," the President said.
In turn, Sergio Gore thanked Kassym-Jomart Tokayev for the opportunity to meet and conveyed President Donald Trump's greetings.
"I can assure you that you have a friend in the White House. President Trump highly values your work. We strive to find mutually beneficial solutions in the interests of our countries. This is evidenced by the growing momentum of contacts between the United States and the states of the region. In the last year alone, agreements and deals worth over $20 billion have been reached, and I am confident that this is only the beginning.
