As China curbs its Covid-19 cases, the country may soon simplify the process of obtaining a visa for citizens of Kazakhstan, QazMonitor reports.
According to the Foreign Ministry, Kazakh Ambassador to China Shakhrat Nuryshev met with Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu to discuss a whole range of issues related to Kazakh-Chinese cooperation.
The talk placed special emphasis on smoothing cooperation at the Kazakh-Chinese border checkpoints.
Mr. Nuryshev shared his hopes for “restoring the number of flights between Kazakhstan and China to the pre-pandemic level” and “simplifying the PRC visa regime for Kazakh citizens”.
