"Presently, our trade and economic relations with Estonia are at a very good level. After the post-crisis period we increased the volume of goods transported by rail by 30 percent in 2010," A. Kusainov said.

According to him, there is an opportunity even to boost mutually beneficial cooperation especially taking into account the fact that Kazakhstan is a Customs Union member state. Besides, there is a necessity of development of cooperation in the sphere of air transport. "We agreed that we would cooperate closely in this sphere as well," he emphasized.

The Minister also noted that Estonia had well developed maritime transport. "Currently, Kazakhstan lacks specialists in this sphere. Thus, the cooperation in this field will be mutually beneficial as well," A. Kusainov concluded.
