Nazarbayev and Trump to meet in January 2018

President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev plans to visit the US and hold negotiations with President Donald Trump in January next year.

Nazarbayev said that during a recent telephone conversation, Trump invited him to visit the White House. He also recalled that he will be there as Kazakhstan will preside over the UN Security Council from 1st January 2018. "We agreed that I will visit Washington at that moment,"  Nazarbayev said at the third session of the Astana Club.

Nazarbayev also noted that both countries have economic ties.

"Over 300 American companies are operating in Kazakhstan. They invested nearly $50 billion in our country. These are the largest oil and energy companies. We want the cooperation, both in technologies and joint investment, to continue," Kazinform cited him as saying.
