China and Kazakhstan strengthen ties through booming Horgos business and Khorgos-Eastern Gate special economic zone.

China and Kazakhstan's close ties are growing through a booming Horgos business scene in northwest China's Xinjiang. The Khorgos-Eastern Gate special economic zone's dry port, jointly built by China and Kazakhstan, has transformed landlocked Kazakhstan into a landlinked nation. Moreover, Chinese car brands have become popular in Kazakhstan, and a green bond strengthens the relationship between the two countries.
