Afghanistan hopes Kazakhstan will continue offering educational grants to its students
"One of President Nazarbayev's initiatives was to offer Afghani students thousands of scholarships to pursue their studies in Kazakhstan. This is the best way to expand potential and support our youth. This program is successful; we are grateful for it and hope this program will be continued in the future," said the ex-President of Afghanistan, talking to journalists on the margins of the 13th Eurasian Media Forum in Astana on Friday.
Earlier Hamid Karzai stressed that scholarships and grants offered to Afghani students were a huge contribution for the country that had been denied the opportunity to offer education to its youth for a long period of time.
It is worth mentioning that Hamid Karzai also highly praised peacemaking efforts of President Nazarbayev.
