Maulen Ashimbayev emphasized that Mongolia is a reliable and important partner for Kazakhstan in the region, with which our country shares common centuries-old traditions and cultural-historical roots. Kazakhstani-Mongolian cooperation today, as the Chairman of the Senate noted, continues to develop in a spirit of mutual respect and trust thanks to the efforts of the Heads of the two states.

We are also interested in further deepening cooperation with the State Great Khural of Mongolia to facilitate the implementation of the agreements of the Heads of State, strengthen inter-parliamentary contacts, and exchange experience in legislative activity», – said the Speaker of the Senate and congratulated the delegation on the upcoming 35th anniversary of the State Great Khural of Mongolia.

He also expressed gratitude for the steps taken by Kazakhstan to promote spiritual diplomacy to overcome global challenges.
