The deputy also inquired about the benefits the country would gain from the modernization of "Kyrgyzneftegaz." In response, Akzholov noted that according to the company's information, it would be able to cover 40% of its fuel import volume independently after the modernization is completed.
Akzholov added that for more accurate information, it would be advisable to contact the company directly.
