“The presidents will sign and announce an extensive declaration on economic cooperation between the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Republic of Poland,” presidential aide Krzysztof Szczerski told the PAP news agency.
He added that the declaration would concern cooperation in energy, transport, space research, science, technology, finance, environmental protection and agriculture.
The two countries' agriculture ministries will sign an agreement on exports, Szczerski also said, adding that Poland would like to see joint investments with Kazakhstan in the public sector.
Eastern policy and building stability and peace in the East will be another topic of the visit, according to the presidential aide. "We had a pause in top-level contacts, whereas Kazakhstan plays an important role in the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) system. It is important to Poland to discuss security and peaceful cooperation within Eastern policy with Kazakhstan,” Szczerski told PAP. (rg)
