The agreement was reached during an official visit by the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, aimed at deepening cooperation and exploring new areas of partnership. The visa waiver is expected to ease travel for government officials and enhance diplomatic engagements between Accra and Bishkek. Both countries expressed a shared commitment to building a strategic partnership across key sectors, particularly in the gold industry.
