TEHRAN (Iran News) – President Ebrahim Raisi has said that Iran and Kazakhstan have diverse and numerous economic capacities to enhance the level of cooperation.

“Joint working groups can identify and make operational these capacities in the form of strategic relations in different sectors,” Raisi said in his meeting with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on Friday on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit in Dushanbe, Tajikistan.

Raisi also told the Kazakh president that all countries in the region should pay due attention to developments in Afghanistan, reiterating Tehran’s support for an inclusive government in the country.

“Afghanistan’s problems will be solved only with the formation of an inclusive government with the participation of all ethnic groups that can restore peace and stability in this country and avoidance of foreign countries from interfering in Afghanistan’s affairs,” the Iranian president remarked.

The President also stressed that Iran is seeking to resolve the nuclear dispute with the West through dialogue.

“Of course, as it has been announced before, we do not want negotiations for negotiations and we are looking for negotiations that will lead to a solution to the problem and yield a result.”

The President of Kazakhstan, for his part, stated that his country was interested in strengthening relations, especially in the economic field, with the Islamic Republic of Iran.

“Transit lines centered on Chabahar port can be the center of development of economic ties between Iran and Central Asian countries,” the Kazak president highlighted.

Tokayev added, “Kazakhstan fully agrees with the Islamic Republic of Iran and considers the formation of an inclusive government with the participation of all groups and ethnic groups as the only way to solve Afghanistan’s problems.”

TEHRAN – The managing director of the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL) said Iran and Kazakhstan have established a joint shipping company in a bid to boost their bilateral trade.

Iran and Kazakhstan’s state-owned railway company have set up a joint shipping company to connect Central Asia to southern Iran, Mohammad Saeedi told the Tasnim news agency on Saturday.

The IRISL chief said the head office of the firm is in the Iranian port city of Bandar Anzali, adding that a representative office will be also established in the Kazakh port city of Aktau.

On April 12, 2016, Iran and Kazakhstan signed an agreement on the establishment of the joint shipping company in the presence of their presidents in Tehran.

At the time, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani received his Kazakh counterpart Nursultan Nazarbayev in the Iranian capital city where the two oversaw the signing of 66 documents, worth two billion dollars, for cooperation in the public and private sectors.
