(New Year Message)
Dear readers of the Diplomacy Journal,

 

I would like to extend warmest congratulations to all the readers of Diplomacy Journal on the New Year 2024 and express my sincere gratitude for your crucial support and assistance in strengthening multifaceted relations between the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Republic of Korea.

 

 

The past year has been very eventful and fruitful for the enhanced strategic partnership between the two countries. In 2023, regular meetings took place between the leaderships of the two countries, including between Presidents Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and Yoon Suk-yeol, Deputy Prime Minister - Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan Murat Nurtleu and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Korea Park Jin, and also between the Chairman of the Mazhilis of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan Erlan Koshanov and the Speaker of the National Assembly of Korea Kim Jin-pyo.
