Kazakh President Qasym-Zhomart Toqaev has arrived in Ankara for an official visit at the invitation of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Turkish Vice President Fuat Oktay and the governor of Ankara, Vasip Sahin, met Toqaev at the Esenboga airport in the Turkish capital on May 10, the Kazakh presidential office said.
After paying tribute to the founder of modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, at the Anitkabir mausoleum, Toqaev held talks with Erdogan.
The two leaders were expected to discuss all aspects of the two nations' relations and "potential steps aimed at enhancing the bilateral and multifaceted cooperation" and "views on current regional and international matters," Turkey's presidential office said ahead of the talks.
The agenda also included the signing of various agreements, protocols, and memorandums of understanding.
It is Toqaev's first visit to Turkey since he was chosen to be president by his predecessor, Nursultan Nazarbaev, following the latter's resignation in March 2019.
