Finance minister addresses business forum in Nur-Sultan

Finance Minister Mihaly Varga spoke at a business forum in Nur-Sultan organised by the Kazakh Chamber of Foreign Trade and the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MKIK), the finance ministry said in a statement on Monday. Varga travelled to Kazakhstan with a delegation of close to 50 Hungarian business leaders. At the forum, he noted that Hungary's exports to Kazakhstan, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals and livestock, rose by almost 60 percent last year. Bilateral trade between the countries exceeded 330 million dollars in 2020, supported by meetings between Hungarian and Kazakh business leaders organised in recent years, he said.
