Kazakhstan could become bridge to Central Asia for Brazilian business: N.Rayev

"Taking into account the Customs Union between our country, Russia and Belarus we can provide access to the markets of these countries within the Union as well", he noted.

The Vice Minister reminded that the Kazakh Government submitted draft agreement between our Governments on technical cooperation and establishment of the Kazakh-Brazilian Intergovernmental Commission on trade-economic cooperation for consideration of the Brazilian Government.

Deputy Minister of Development, Industry, and Foreign Trade Ivan Ramalho supported these proposals.

"We want the trade between our countries to be increase in both directions. The export of Brazil to Kazakhstan was reduced this year, but the import of Kazakhstan to Brazil was increased. This fact shows that we have great potential for the development of our trade turnover. Brazil is interested in purchase of the Kazakh wheat and fertilizers. But there exist many other goods that we could trade with", he said.
