The building of new roads will help create new jobs in the country, he said.
"Another important encouraging aspect of this initiative is that it went global; of course, it's about connecting Asia and Europe, but now countries from different regions are interested in joining this effort. It will make a difference," he said.
China's Belt and Road Initiative, a master plan to integrate 65 countries from East Asia to Western Europe, is poised to improve the living standards of 4.4 billion people -- more than half of the world's population.
More than 100 countries and international organizations have joined the initiative, and more than 40 of them have cooperation agreements with China.
Chinese businesses have helped build 56 economic and trade cooperation zones in 20 countries along the Belt and Road, with a total investment exceeding 18 billion US dollars, thus helping to generate more than 1 billion US dollars in tax revenue and more than 160,000 jobs.
"We are very optimistic and most supportive of this, and are ready to work together with China and other partners "to make this Belt and Road Initiative a reality, Bultrikov said.
China will host a Belt and Road Forum for international cooperation in Beijing this May to explore ways to address regional and global economic problems, generate fresh energy for interconnected development, and ensure that the Belt and Road Initiative delivers greater benefits to people of the countries involved.
"Taking into account the very active development related to the Belt and Road Initiative and interest from many partners, countries and international organizations in the practical implementation of this project, I believe the meeting in May will further contribute to advancing and realizing the goals of this extraordinary initiative," he said.
"Taking into account that if implemented, this endeavour will cover more than half of the world's population -- almost half of world's GDP, we believe that it will be of interest not only for the countries engaged in implementing this project within the framework of Belt and Road Initiative, but also for the entire globe," Bultrikov said.
Noting a rising trend of protectionism and voices against globalization, he said, "I believe that globalization is a reality; we have to live with it, and every country is influenced by the situation of the world economy."
"The principle of free trade must prevail, and we are ready to live according to these rules," he said.
On the Chinese concept of building "a community of shared future for humankind," Bultrikov said, "We all know that the Chinese civilization is very ancient with longstanding traditions. We also know that it is the Chinese culture to foresee and plan for generations ahead, and not just for the five to 10 years to come."
"We therefore understand why the Chinese leader has made pledges which are directed to future generations," he said. "I believe that with political will from other countries and from China, of course, these ideas can be implemented and we will share the future together peacefully."
At present, Kazakhstan is one of the elected 10 non-permanent members of the UN Security Council. As a non-permanent member of the 15-nation Council, he said his country is "closely cooperating with China and other permanent members" in the area of peace and security -- the main mandate of this major UN body.
The Belt and Road Initiative was included in a Security Council resolution on Afghanistan on March 17, he said that was "reflecting the understanding that there is no peace without development, and no development without peace."
"We are also cooperating closely with the Chinese delegation on almost all subjects within the General Assembly," Bultrikov said, citing the example of the cooperation of Kazakhstan and China, when the two countries were members of the open-ended group, together with Indonesia. for formulating and implementing the 17 Sustainable Development Goals."I personally was a member of the Troika," he said.
