An independent, safe, stable and prosperous Kazakhstan is in the common interests of the people of China and the Central Asian nation, President Xi Jinping said during a meeting with Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on Saturday.
Noting that the relationship between the nations is critical for both regional and world peace, Xi said China firmly supports Kazakhstan's independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.
China will always be a reliable friend and firm partner of Kazakhstan and is ready to help the nation develop its economy and improve people's livelihoods, he said.
Tokayev expressed gratitude to China for firmly supporting his country's efforts in safeguarding its security and stability.
Kazakhstan will, as always, firmly support China on issues related to China's core interests and will not be influenced by external forces, he said.
