Kazakh president Tokayev to pay state visit to China
At the invitation of President Xi Jinping, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev will pay a state visit to China from Sept 10 to 12, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said on Thursday.
This is the first time that Tokayev will pay a state visit to China since taking the office.
