Astana, SANA — The Kazakh Foreign Ministry expressed hope that representatives of all parties will attend the upcoming talks on the Syrian settlement in the Kazakh capital of Astana on May 3-4.

Kazakh Deputy Foreign Minister Mukhtar Tileuberdi was quoted by Sputnik News Agency as saying “We are hoping that the talks in Astana will be held on the highest level. We are ready to host on any level, we have already prepared for the expert level.”
