 Following the visit of President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to the United States, 29 agreements totaling nearly 17 billion US dollars were signed, covering key sectors such as industry, energy, digitalization, education, and innovation. The agreements mark a new stage in strengthening the strategic partnership between the two countries.

A key outcome of the visit was a 2.5 billion US dollars agreement between the Ministry of Industry and Construction, Baiterek Holding, Agromash Holding KZ, Eurasia Group AG, and John Deere to localize the production of up to 3,000 agricultural machines in Kostanay and Turkestan, establish service centers, and make Kazakhstan a regional hub for spare parts and training. In the mining sector, Tau-Ken Samruk and Cove Capital signed a 1.1 billion US dollars deal to jointly develop the North Katpar and Verkhne Kairakty tungsten deposits in the Karaganda region – among the world’s largest – creating new high-value-added processing capacity.

Cooperation in aviation also advanced, with Air Astana and Boeing signed a Letter of Intent for the purchase of 18 new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners. This agreement will expand passenger capacity on key routes and enable flexible development of the airline’s network, connecting Kazakhstan with major business and tourism hubs in Europe, Asia, the United States, and the Middle East starting from 2026.
