how should the Russian question be in Kazakhstan
“This is a passage further, Central Asia, India and further Iran – otherwise there will be a traffic jam. Kazakhstan – if a pro-American, pro-Taliban, pro-Islamic, pro-Chinese regime sets up there – all this is not for our use.

That is, everything was blocked to the Russians – second-class people. Who will like this?!” the politician said.

Well, four classes, you think?! But Kazakh. And so it is, ”the politician stated.
