Turkey and Kazakhstan aim to achieve a $10 billion trade volume, Ambassador says

AKIPRESS.COM - Turkey and Kazakhstan aim to achieve a $10 billion trade volume in the long run, according to the Kazakh ambassador in Ankara. During a visit to Karabuk in Turkey's Black Sea region, Abzal Saparbekuly pointed out that an 8% drop in trade volume between the two countries is expected due to the coronavirus outbreak.
"However, Turkey's share in Kazakhstan's foreign trade increased by a grade moving up to the sixth place. This is important in terms of our trade relations with Turkey," the ambassador told Anadolu Agency.
He said the trade volume between the two states was expected to reach $3 billion last year, adding that the potential was actually much higher.
