During the meeting, the two sides discussed aviation cooperation between Kyrgyzstan and ICAO.
«We consider the aviation sector as a key tool for integration of Kyrgyzstan into the global economy and are ready to implement ambitious projects, such as entering the international aviation market through Asman Airlines. In the near future, we intend to continue strengthening the human resources potential of the aviation sector, providing the State Civil Aviation Agency of the Kyrgyz Republic with the necessary financial resources and improving the qualifications of inspectors. These steps will contribute to the sustainable development of the sector and strengthen our country’s position in international aviation,» Kasymaliev stated.
