Almaty, January 5 (Xinhua) — Kazakhstan's economy grew by more than 6 percent, and its gross domestic product (GDP) crossed the $300 billion mark, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said on Monday.

In an interview with the Kazakh newspaper Turkestan, he reported that per capita GDP had exceeded $15,000. "These are record figures not only for our country but for the entire region," he explained.

Discussing diplomatic events involving Kazakhstan in 2025, K.-Z. Tokayev noted that documents worth over $70 billion were signed last year. "Every negotiation centers on key issues of economic and investment cooperation and global interaction," he noted.

"Located at the very center of Eurasia, Kazakhstan should not remain a bystander, especially in these turbulent times. We must have our own perspective, a balanced position on key issues in international relations," the president added.

In this regard, K.-Zh. Tokayev noted that he has no desire to mediate in international disputes and has no aspirations to return to work at the UN, "despite the probing efforts of a number of countries."

“But I do participate in closed consultations and discussions, especially since the heads of a number of states are interested in my opinion,” he explained. –0–

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stern warning to Colombian President Gustavo Petro on Sunday evening, saying he "will not be doing this (producing cocaine and selling it to the United States) for much longer."

Answering a question about a possible US military operation against Colombia, D. Trump said: “I think it sounds good.”

He told reporters aboard Air Force One that Colombia, which borders Venezuela, is "run by a sick man who loves to produce cocaine and sell it to the United States."

“He /G. Petro/ has cocaine mills, he has factories where cocaine is produced,” D. Trump said, without providing any evidence.

Mr. Petro on Saturday called for an urgent meeting of the Organization of American States and the United Nations to discuss the US strike on Venezuela.

In an interview with Politico last month, Trump said he would consider expanding military operations against targets in other countries, including Mexico and Colombia. –0–

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday threatened that Venezuela's acting President Delcy Rodriguez could "pay a very high price, perhaps even higher" than President Nicolas Maduro if she continues to refuse to cooperate with the United States.

"If she doesn't do the right thing, she'll pay a very high price, perhaps even higher than Maduro," Trump said in a telephone interview with The Atlantic. Maduro was evacuated from the country by US forces on Saturday and is now in custody in New York, where he will stand trial on narco-terrorism charges.

The American leader made it clear that he would not tolerate what he called D. Rodriguez's defiant refusal to cooperate with the United States, the magazine reported.

In the interview, D. Trump also emphasized that the United States “absolutely” needs Greenland, confirming that Venezuela may not be the last country to be subjected to American interference.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in another media interview on Sunday morning that Trump will keep all options open for "governing" Venezuela, will assess the ability of the country's interim leadership to "make the right decisions," and does not rule out a future US military presence in the country.

“We expect greater compliance and cooperation than we have seen in the past,” M. Rubio said of D. Rodriguez on CBS. –0–
