Sweden’s New Ambassador Officially Presents Credentials to Kazakhstan

Kazakh Deputy Foreign Minister Arman Issetov has received copies of credentials from Lars Stefan Eriksson, the newly appointed Swedish Ambassador to Kazakhstan, and the two discussed the current state and future prospects of Kazakh-Swedish cooperation across political, economic, cultural, and humanitarian fields, emphasizing opportunities to expand trade, investment, and business ties.

The diplomats agreed to continue promoting active bilateral and multilateral engagement to fully realize the potential of the Kazakhstan-Sweden relationship, The Caspian Post reports via Kazakh media.

Kazakhstan and Sweden maintain a strong and multifaceted partnership that spans political, economic, cultural, and humanitarian spheres. Diplomatic relations between the two countries were established shortly after Kazakhstan gained independence in 1991. Since then, both nations have developed close cooperation in such areas as trade, investment, energy, and technology. Sweden is recognized as one of Kazakhstan’s important European partners, with Swedish companies actively involved in sectors like infrastructure, renewable energy, and mining.
