ASTANA, May 26 (Xinhua) -- The China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) Court and International Arbitration Centre (IAC) on Monday here.

Both entities plan to jointly promote practical cooperation in international arbitration and cultivate high-level legal professionals for foreign-related rule of law work.

Jiang Zeting, chair of the CUPL Council, who is currently visiting Kazakhstan, met with Christopher Campbell-Holt, registrar and chief executive of the AIFC Court and IAC.

Jiang noted that the university, leveraging its strategic layout of "one center with multiple bases," is strengthening legal exchanges and mutual learning between China and Central Asian countries.

He also shared that CUPL is currently working to establish a global law leadership academy, aimed at cultivating high-level legal professionals familiar with international legal norms to support global governance.

Campbell-Holt said the strengthening of Kazakhstan-China economic cooperation has led to increasing demand for cross-border dispute resolution. He proposed that both sides deepen their institutional cooperation by promoting mutual learning in commercial arbitration rules and conducting joint practical training to provide legal support for regional economic growth.

The CUPL delegation is scheduled to visit Tajikistan and Uzbekistan afterward to advance the joint establishment of cooperation mechanisms.
