"The UAE has spared no effort to provide the best health outcomes and medical assistance to support Kazakhstan and strengthen its capabilities to face the repercussions of the COVID -19 crisis," said Dr. Mohammed Ahmed bin Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Ambassador to Kazakhstan.

His Excellency Madyar Menilekov, Ambassador of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the UAE, thanked the leadership of the UAE for its “great support” to Kazakhstan. “The bilateral relations between our two countries are distinct and strong fraternal relations.
