Kazakhstan Expands Energy, Green Tech Cooperation with Italy, Jordan
Kazakh Foreign Minister Yermek Kosherbayev recently held significant meetings at the Aqaba Process Summit, discussing expanded cooperation with Italy and Jordan. The discussions focused on energy, green technologies, and combating transnational crime.
Kosherbayev met with Italian PM Giorgia Meloni and Deputy PM Antonio Tajani, exploring ways to broaden industrial and energy cooperation. New projects in engineering, sustainable fuel production, and manufacturing were discussed. This comes as Italy is one of Kazakhstan's key strategic partners within the EU, with bilateral trade turnover reaching $20 billion in 2024.
The Kazakh Foreign Minister also discussed joint efforts to combat terrorism, extremism, and transnational crime with King Abdullah II of Jordan. This follows a trend of international cooperation in these areas, with countries like Germany, Japan, and Singapore engaged in strategic partnerships focused on sustainable fuels, demand storage, and recycling facilities. For instance, FEV (Germany) and Chiyoda (Japan) are working together on sustainable energy solutions, while Nemetschek Group and NTU Singapore are developing AI-driven sustainable building technologies.
Kazakhstan continues to strengthen its international ties, with Kosherbayev's meetings in Aqaba highlighting the country's commitment to expanding cooperation in energy, green technologies, and combating transnational crime. These efforts, particularly with key partners like Italy and Jordan, are expected to foster growth and security in the region.
