During the meeting the heads of state discussed current issues of bilateral cooperation, as well as a number of topical issues of regional and international agenda.
Nursultan Nazarbayev congratulated Vladimir Putin on the 71st anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War and with the first rocket launch from Vostochny Cosmodrome.
Not every country can afford to launch such a modern cosmodrome. You have made it. This is a significant for your country’s history event that will be remembered by many generations,” he said.
In addition, Nursultan Nazarbayev reminded about the upcoming meetings within the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council, Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit and the Council of CIS heads of state.
We are having an extensive agenda and a lot of meetings this year. In difficult times like these, the Eurasian Economic Union is developing normally. The challenges that are emerging at present can be overcome,” he noted.
Vladimir Putin, in turn, thanked Nursultan Nazarbayev for his recent visit to Moscow to participate in the military parade dedicated to the 71st anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
I am sure that our relations will further develop in a positive and multifaceted manner as it has been up until now. Your visit will certainly strengthen trust between our countries and create good conditions for further development of our friendly relations,” he said.
