AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Caspian Connectivity: Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan are moving to restart passenger ferry service across the Caspian Sea on the Kuryk–Baku–Kuryk route, suspended since 2020, with about 1,500 passengers a year previously using it—expected to boost tourism and Middle Corridor links. Rail Digital Push: Kazakhstan plans to expand satellite internet on trains from 59 passenger trains (as of Sep 8) to 124 by late September, covering 1,235 carriages across 50 routes. Green Industry: A major paper recycling plant in Pavlodar is set to be commissioned in 2028 under the QazRoyalPak project, funded via recycling fee revenues, to increase recycled paper inputs. Energy Storage Draft: Kazakhstan is advancing a draft law on energy storage systems as part of its green energy push. Customs Modernization: Kazakhstan and the WCO are working on a modern customs cooperation model, aiming for a more data-driven “smart border.” Regional Security: Foreign ministers from Kazakhstan and four Central Asian neighbors signed a joint statement marking the 20th anniversary of the nuclear-weapon-free zone treaty, urging renewed arms control progress. Health & Life-Saving: Two deceased donors in East Kazakhstan enabled heart and liver transplants in one case, and heart, liver, lung, and two kidneys in another. US-Iran Pressure Touches Kazakhstan: The US Treasury imposed 36 aviation-sector sanctions on Iran and designated firms in Kazakhstan among those it says helped Iran’s airlines access US-linked aircraft routes.
