The two sessions will draw the attention of the world, given the continued strength of the economic growth in China, despite the many global uncertainties, said Shakhrat Nuryshev, Kazakhstan's ambassador to Beijing.
He told China Daily that China's economy is actively seeking new growth drivers.

"Therefore, I can firmly state that the issues at the two sessions will not be minor issues for us. All questions will be important in terms of the need for an in-depth study of China's future plans and strategies for further development," he said.
"How successful China will be in overcoming the existing difficulties and in ensuring economic growth within the 6.5 to 7 percent range has attracted the attention of the entire world community," he said.
"This is primarily because China provides about a quarter of global economic growth and has a direct impact on the economic situation of countries that are its trade and economic partners."
The ambassador said Kazakhstan is a close neighbor, a reliable friend and strategic partner of China and occupies one of the most important places in the Silk Road Economic Belt.
The Silk Road Economic Belt was announced by Xi during a visit to Kazakhstan in September 2013. It has a deep symbolic and practical meaning, as the main transport corridors from China to Europe, Central Asia, the Caucasus, the Middle East and the Persian Gulf have already been built, put into operation and tested in Kazakhstan, according to the ambassador.
