Zhong emphasized that in the context of the global pandemic, ZUFE will pay more attention to prevention and control measures and the economic impact on Kazakhstan, contribute to the national Belt and Road Initiative, take full advantage of economic management disciplines and international education, and further promote the establishment of an academic platform (the first Chinese platform for economic and social research in Kazakhstan), so as to explore new areas of Sino-Kazakh cooperation in the context of the pandemic.

Zhang Xiao, Chinese ambassador to Kazakhstan, discussed the current status of the pandemic in Kazakhstan and the preventative measures taken by the country. He spoke highly of the cooperation and mutual assistance between China and Kazakhstan throughout the pandemic.

Zhang proposed promoting project cooperation under the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative and implementing the consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, strengthening medical and health cooperation and preventative measures to build a "Healthy Silk Road", deepening scientific and technological innovation cooperation, strengthening the integration of innovative strategies between the two countries, and making good use of science and technology to help China and Central Asian countries fight the pandemic together.
