Concurrently, the visit of Kazakhstan's President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Pakistan, as reported by 'Geo News' and 'Tribune Latest', further cements this bilateral relationship. President Tokayev's visit, his first state visit to Pakistan, is seen as a 'milestone in strengthening bilateral cooperation', according to 'Peak Point'. The visit includes high-level meetings with Pakistani leadership and participation in the Pakistan-Kazakhstan Business Forum, aimed at boosting trade and investment ties. This visit is particularly noteworthy as it is the first by a Kazakh president in over two decades, reflecting a renewed commitment to enhancing diplomatic and economic relations. Additionally, Pakistan's naval leadership is actively engaging with Azerbaijan to expand defense cooperation, as reported by 'Pakistan Today' and 'ARY News'. Meetings between Pakistan's Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Naveed Ashraf, and Azerbaijan's Commander of Naval Forces, Rear Admiral Shahin Mammadov, focused on 'strengthening and diversifying' their defense relationship.
