Hungary & Kazakhstan Strengthen Ties with New Flights, Education Push
Hungary and Kazakhstan are boosting ties, with President Tamás Sulyok visiting Kazakhstan. New direct flights between Budapest and Shymkent are set to strengthen tourism and bring peoples closer. The countries also aim to deepen cooperation in education, energy, and digitalization.
The leaders of Hungary and Kazakhstan are focusing on education. Hungary offers 250 scholarships annually to Kazakh citizens through the Stipendium Hungaricum program. This strategic move aims to foster closer ties and mutual understanding.
The countries' geographical positions make them crucial for East-West cooperation. They serve as a bridge and gateway between Europe and Asia, particularly in sustainable transport, logistics, and energy chains. The Trans-Caspian International Transport Route, crossing Kazakhstan, is a testament to this. Both nations play vital roles in strengthening connections between the two regions.
President Sulyok's visit underscores the flourishing strategic partnership between Kazakhstan and Hungary. Key areas for deepening cooperation include energy, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and digitalization. With new direct flights and educational ties, the two countries continue to strengthen their bond, bringing their peoples closer and fostering sustainable ties.
