DND Special ReportThe forthcoming visit of the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Pakistan in the first week of February holds considerable diplomatic, economic, and strategic significance. The forthcoming visit of the President of Kazakhstan to Pakistan is a timely and important opportunity to redefine bilateral relations in line with contemporary regional and global realities. Pakistan and Kazakhstan, though geographically separated by Afghanistan, share deep historical, cultural, and civilizational linkages that date back centuries.
