Kazakhstan has sharply increased its cigarette exports: Armenia has become one of the main buyers.
In January-August, Armenia became one of the main importers of Kazakh cigarettes, purchasing 1.1 thousand tons of products.
Major buyers also included Kyrgyzstan (2.7 thousand tons), Mongolia (940 tons) and Uzbekistan (894 tons).
It is worth noting that during this period, the volume of cigarette exports from Kazakhstan exceeded sales in the country's domestic market for the first time in history.
