During this meeting, Imam Khamenei emphasized, "Concerning the issue of Ukraine, the main problem is that the West is seeking to expand NATO wherever they can without taking anything into consideration."

Imam Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, referred to the deep historical and cultural ties between Iran and Kazakhstan during a meeting with the President of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich Tokayev, and his accompanying delegation this evening (Sunday). He emphasized the need to expand cooperation between the two countries in various fields, particularly regional cooperation.

Imam Khamenei stressed that coordination in political and economic issues is necessary for the development of relations and underlined the need to start a joint commission, "The two sides must intensify their efforts to follow up on agreements and to implement them. "

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution also considered an increase in cultural cooperation between Iran and Kazakhstan to be important and added, "Farabi (Alpharabius), a Muslim philosopher and scholar with Kazakhstani origins whose works have been researched and studied in Iran for 1,000 years, can be considered a basis for cultural cooperation and the founding of a mutual scholarly committee between Iran and Kazakhstan."

Imam Khamenei also spoke about the issues of Ukraine and said, "Concerning the issue of Ukraine, the main problem is that the West is seeking to expand NATO wherever they can without taking anything into consideration."

The Leader added, "It is necessary to carefully monitor and examine matters and to be vigilant because the US and the West always seek to expand their influence in different regions, including in East and West Asia, as well as to strike a blow against countries’ independence and sovereignty."

This meeting was also attended by the President of Iran, Mr. Raisi. During the meeting, Mr. Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich Tokayev, the President of Kazakhstan, stated, "We had very good talks with Mr. Raisi and the documents signed by both sides can pave the way for the further expansion of relations between the two countries."
