Last week, KEG President Valikhan Bakhretdinov joined policymakers and industry leaders from across the Global South at ORF America’s EU-Global South Policy Dialogue on Clean Trade and Investment Partnerships in Brussels.

On the panel “The Global South Perspective – Opportunities, Constraints, and Expectations for Clean Industrial Partnerships,” Valikhan represented Kazakhstan’s voice in a conversation that matters: how emerging economies can engage with EU clean trade frameworks on equal footing.
Kazakhstan’s critical raw materials, strategic location on the Middle Corridor, and growing alignment with EU standards make it a natural partner in Europe’s energy transition. We look forward to continuing these conversations.
