Li extended greetings from Chinese President Xi Jinping to Nazarbayev, saying the two countries should continue to implement the consensus reached by the two heads of state on bilateral cooperation.

He said China and Kazakhstan are highly complementary in economy and facing broad cooperation prospect. China was willing to deepen the production capacity cooperation with Kazakhstan, expand cooperation in energy, connectivity and deep processing of agricultural products, and increase people-to-people exchanges.
