 The Deputy Head of Kazakhstan's leading Party answered the questions of the representatives of the International China Radio, the official party newspaper "Jenmin Jibao" (China Dayly), the Chinese information internet center and information agencies "Sinkhua" and "China News". Particularly, he gave a high appreciation to the status of Kazakhstani-Chinese trade and economical partnership and noted, that trade turnover between countries surpassed USD 17 billion in 2008, which is 26,5% higher than in the previous year.

 Mr.Kaletayev named the Loan Agreement with China to the amount of USD 10 billion a factor of strengthening of the bilateral trade and economical relations between the countries. Moreover, during the recent SCO summit in Yekaterinburg Chairman of Chinese Republic Hu Zintao suggested to emit USD 10 billion for anti-crisis programs for the SCO member-states. Mr.Kaletayev noted that that was another indicator of stable financial and economical relations between the two countries.

The world recession negatively influenced the indicators of trade between Kazakhstan and China this year, according to the Nur Otan deputy head. In such conditions it is important to prevent reduction of trade volume of the 2008. He gave a high estimate to anti-crisis measures of the Chinese Government.

 Mr.Kaletayev pointed out that the financial crisis has created new challenges for the parties of Kazakhstan. The Nur Otan Party sees the main anti-crisis work in public control over the expenditures of the taxpayers' funds.   

 

Kazakhstan Party representative answered the question of the International Radio of China about the goals and tasks of the coming Session of General Assembly of Asian Union of political parties, which will take place in September in Astana. The event is held to find the ways and forms of collaboration between political parties. He hopes that more than 240 representatives of 47 countries will come to take part in the Session.
