ASTANA. August 16. KAZINFORM /Muratbek Makulbekov/ At today's Government's session Kazakh Prime Minister Karim Massimov has charged the management of border and customs services to study opportunities of opening additional crossing points on the border with Kyrgyzstan.
The Prime Minister noted that additional crossing points could be opened only on those sections of the border, where Kyrgyz side had "an opportunity to control the situation".
This request came from Kyrgyz Minister of Finance Chorobek Imashev, who informed about the slowing down of trade between the two states caused by traffic problems at the crossing points.
