The sides broached a number of promising infrastructure projects [under way in Kazakhstan], notably financing of construction of the Almaty Ring Road”, the press-release reads. President Nazarbayev highlighted the great contribution made by the Bank into the nation’s economy development. “Sir Suma Chakrabarti expressed satisfaction with the current cooperation and emphasized that as of the end of 2013 the package of projects in Kazakhstan totaled about $450-500 million.
