Astana, Jun 16 (EFE).- Chinese President Xi Jinping<\/strong> arrived in Kazakhstan on Monday, where he was received by his Kazakh counterpart, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev<\/strong>, to participate in the Second China-Central Asia Summit<\/strong>. The leaders are expected to discuss multilateral cooperation<\/a> in several key sectors.<\/p>\n

The Chinese president, who turned 72 yesterday, is scheduled to participate in the summit on Tuesday and Wednesday to discuss cooperation between China and Central Asian countries<\/strong>, which are gaining global significance due to their geostrategic position as a corridor to the Middle East, Africa, and Europe.<\/p>\n

Some of the issues to be discussed in the Kazakh capital include trade, energy, technology cooperation, agriculture, industry, and logistics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the Russian side, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov<\/strong> told a press conference on Monday that Russia “has no reason to worry” about the strengthening of relations<\/strong> between Central Asian countries and China. He said that “China is a privileged strategic partner” and Central Asian countries are “natural allies and partners.”<\/p>\n
