Kyrgyz for stronger ties with India at IITF

As the Focus Country at the India International Trade Fair (IITF), Kyrgyzstan is pulling out all stops to push for greater business ties with India. 

“This year is very special in our bilateral relation. We are celebrating 25th anniversary of our diplomatic relations. Within these 25 years we have laid a very solid foundation for connectivity between our countries - people to people, government to government. Now, I think it’s high time that we connected our businesses. “So, we are honoured to be a part of such an event like IITF,” Kyrgyz Ambassador Samargiul Adamkulova said. 

Being the Focus Country has enabled Kyrgyzstan put up nine stalls at the fair, with one of them offering white honey, another an array of traditional hats called ‘kalpak’ in the native tongue and also milk mushrooms, thus named as the variously coloured juices they exude when cut.
