You also kind of butchered the name of Kazakhstan. It would be nice if you changed it while you still can, cause you are an educational channel, it might confuse many people)
Kazakhstan is very IMPORTANT COUNTRY. Peacefull , and Respecting other countries. People are friendly, wise and proud - Very HONEST NATION . I keep for KAZAKHSTAN and KAZAKH NATION
Russia is very UNIMPORTANT COUNTRY, hostile, doesn't respect any other countries. People are violent, uneducated, and no pride - Very DISHONEST NATION,
@@fajkoson I refer to Kazakhstan, I have no personal knowledge of either Russia or China. However, I met many Russians in Kazakhstan whom I liked immensely.
Russia and China need Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan has the power to be a free democratic country if it plays its cards right, it’s greatest enemy is corruption.
I am from China and I visited Kazakhstan last year. My best freind since high school is Kazakh and my boyfriend is also Kazakh. Central Asia is wonderful, yet people rarely get to know its diverse and sophisticated culture. Predominantly all my Chines friends have positive impressions on our Central Asian neighbours.
I think all the countries that were in the Soviet Union are sick of Russia, the aggressiveness and corruption it spreads, but not everybody has NATO’s umbrella to say what’s on their mind.
Iraq is still suffering with radiation from uranium shells. Iraq to this day still can’t find missing people. Lybia has more people dying per day than USA fentanyl overdose. Just openly saying.
In my opinion, no country should act as a "life saver." Every sovereign nation, including ours, does not require help from any external country, whether it's the so-called "West," China, or Russia. Providing more weapons to Kazakhstan from the West might be perceived as a threat by Russia or China. Additionally, China's economic influence in Kazakhstan may be viewed as problematic by the West, as both parties profit from Kazakhstan's natural resources. This creates a never-ending cycle of complications. As Kazakhs, we require only equal and fair treatment in economic, social, political, and security matters. But this is a challenging problem in today's world, where the West sees us as Borats and Kazakhstan as a Kremlin puppet state. Similarly, Russian people take our relationship for granted and misinterpret respect as weakness. Chinese people perceive us as people holding gold but lacking the know-how to turn it into money, so they choose to benefit from it themselves. Although I cannot offer a solution, I propose one thing that can help. We should NOT discriminate against Kazakhs, or anyone in the world.
I am chinese, to be honest, China is not interested in the natural resources, which everybody saudi/Russia/iran/Venezuela/latin America/Africa/indonesia are all selling natural resources like crazy. However the more choices available, the more stable the prices are. all the developed country are around the coast line, because the ease of transportation. It is the same for China, if we want to develop western China, we need to connect them to other regions, and kazakhstan is a link to the middle east, the alternative route would be afghanistan, which is too unstable at this point. 🫠
I am pleasantly surprised to hear how open minded the Kazakh people are, looking out to the world and seeing through all the theater shows that Russia and China put up trying to gain influence in their territory. They are smart to trust none of the 2 big neighbors. I hope their elite plays their cards right in order to maintain peace in their land.

@maxxxielorenzo2345 I don’t want to insult anybody. I say this since it can be quite difficult to understand tone in a written comment. I am a citizen of Kazakhstan. That doesn’t mean I know all the facts about local politics and history. In fact, most of the local population aren’t particularly interested in politics at all. Sorry for writing such a long reply. I really enjoy thoughtful discussions. I want to mention that population of Kazakhstan is ~20 million, while population of China is over a billion. It’s natural for Kazakhstan citizens and government to feel that their identity is threatened. USSR deporting whole nations into Kazakhstan and widespread famine have made Kazakhs a minority on their own ground. Dzhungars, who were Kazakhs enemies for a long time, no longer exist as a nation. The agreement was made to improve the diplomatic relations between countries. Kazakhstan was and still is under Russian influence for a long time. It goes back to Imperial Russia and Kazakh Khaganate. Willingly fall under China’s influence was a move to counter act the historical oppression. Both nations are powerfull and being in good terms with them is important. 1:52 - “...And he was also on of the co-founders of China sponsored Shenghai Security Organisation.” - Quote from this video. I think it is called “Shenghai Cooperation Organisation”, but don’t take my word on that. I want to remind anybody reading to not take random internet stranger comment as fact. Most of this comes from my memory and not solid sources. But this doesn’t mean everything I said is wrong.
Excellent report. I think that amid all the massive turmoil and hardship we've seen over the last few years, one of the major positives we've seen is a massive increase in respect for and familiarity with the Kazakh, Ukrainian, and Sudanese people for standing up for themselves without any assistance from the world against those who sought to oppress their culture, rights and self-determination. What amazing and brave people.
Thank you🙏🏼 All we want here in Kazakhstan is peace for ourself and every other nation in the World. Friendship is a treasure we all should always maintain🇰🇿
We in Poland often think that our geographic location between two more powerful and aggressive countries (militarily or economically) is a very unfortunate one but there are other countries in a similar position just like Kazakhstan between Russia and China or Armenia between Turkey and Azerbaijan.
It's even worse than that. Because the central Asian countries are also sandwiched between India and OIC. Meaning that they are also sandwiched between two other super groups.

As Kazakh citizen I strongly oppose to China and its influence in Kazakhstan , we all aware what they do Uighur Turks and this is not a secret anymore, even Chinese try to lie and hide the crime they commit against Uighurs.
how do you feel about what Turkey is doing to its Kurdish citizens? it's worse than china to Uighurs and it's been happening since 1923 when that genocidal maniac ataturk created a false turk-only nation
since I am a Kazakh myself, I will say that it is really not easy for Kazakhstan to find itself between the Russian bears and the Chinese dragon. since we used to be part of the USSR, our economy depends on Russia. But now the new generation understands how much pain and suffering the USSR brought to the Kazakh people. this is hunger, war, the execution of Kazakh intellectuals in the 30s, they were taken away and left with nothing. Kazakhstan needs a deep partnership with Europe and the US. thanks to the author of the video for the work! all the best in the world!
@@KoKomusic83Rus/Slav are Balto-Slavic. It's not just Central Asia, they killed millions of Tatars in the Volga region and Siberia. They exiled whole populations, starving many of them to death like the Crimean Tatars. That's how they Russified the Urals, Siberia, Caucasus, and Far East. Ironically, the the Ukrainians were the vanguards of the Russian expansion, and now the same tactics are used on Ukrainians.
If Kazakhstan relies on Europe and the US they will be extorted for their uranium and they will also be aiding western tyranny not to mention the west is likely to overthrow the Kazakh government if they haven't done so already and get Kazakh people into conflicts that will bankrupt their country. The west is good at keeping eastern countries poor and desperate
As someone from this region, I believe you are not highlighting the reaction of Kazakhstan and Central Asia strong enough. The Central Asian neighbors of Russia are responding just as coldly as European ones. Just recently an Uzbekistan leader was loudly scolding Putin in front of everyone about Central Asians being Russia's former colonies and Putin looked disturbed. This situation needs to be highlighted.
@@pwn5047 and they should be thankful to who about that...to Russia/Former Soviet Untion?...which annexed pretty much all of the former Soviet Republics.
One thing is missing here: main oil plants in Kazakhstan are controlled by US and there is a agreement that US will protect those properties. This was signed at Washington in 90’s.
@@paulxu9653 they did. Ask Uyghurs and Djungars if they still exist about China. Also ask Ukrainians, Tatars, Bashkirs, Kazakhs about famines Russians created for them. And don't forget to ask Caucasians about ethnic cleansings that Stalin did too 👍
Kazakhstan is a linchpin that could make Russia vulnerable. Europe should pay more attention to Kazakhstan. Maybe Kazakhstan is not so big economy, so Europeans are not interested. But as Kazakhstan gets more support from west, Russia will lose its power.
Russia won't exist in 1 year. That's when the gold runs out and the country balkanizes. China is completely dependent on trade with the US. And china's demographics mean they have 10 years before they break up as well. Want the math?
You mean turn Kazakhstan to todays Ukraine? West should focus on its own problems and stay away from everyone else affairs and let people fight their own battles. West isn’t Jesus! We all know what happened to Iraq, Libya, Syria,Ukraine,Afghanistan list is long!
It's very important for us here in Kazakhstan (Qazaqstan) to feel this worldwide support! All our thoughts are now with brotherly Ukranians - we understand that they defend whole world! And we are sure they will crash the backbone of this monster and provide us all with peace and bright future!
@@maxh7637 It's not about "Caring" it's about having ethics. Kazakhstan is in a place, where West can't really get to, to actually help if they need to. But we would mourn and try to support internationally as much as we could.
Why did you go to Kazakhstan and asked a non-Kazakh about the country? Why didn't you interview a Kazakh journalist? They Wouldn't tow the DW line? What a joke!!
I visited Kazahstan for a few months in 1993, what a wonderful country. I feel so sorry they're stuck between Russia and China, with no support from NATO or any other western alliance. Too small to fight both 🇨🇳 and 🇷🇺
Only when the west is involved, it becomes dangerous. The US is only interested in it’s own profit in any way, and has a history of starting wars to please the gigantic military industrial complex, and maintain it’s enormous “defense” budget. Never peace when the US is involved. No problem to be between China and Russia, because they are much more considerate about other countries than the US (and their EU NATO partners).
Thats probably what all Russian non-NATO neighbors think except Belarus which is ignorant about Russian intensions but you are right, Russia is just looking for excuses to invade neighboring countries and take their land.

I suppose it is not the other people who can understand the real situation in Kazakhstan. It is the Kazakhs themselves, who understand better than the people who live in other parts of the world. Trust me, the situation of Ukraine and Kazakhstan cannot be compared from any perspective, whether cultural, political, economic, etc. The factors that affected the situation in Ukraine are only applicable to Ukraine itself and no other country. Secondly, I want to say that there is no anxiety among Kazakh people, contrary to the claims of that correspondent. I think over-evaluation can sometimes be not very plausible. Everyone is living a peaceful life as before. For those who don't have enough knowledge about Kazakhstan, it is a peaceful country that maintains a 'rational' policy for everyone and everything. Kazakhs historically had their own state and will have it in the future too. Kazakhs are descendants of Turks and Kazakhstan is a descendant of Turkic Khanate. Applying a general conclusion to everything without considering details and nuances will at least give a flawed result.
Асулан, президент Казахстана, также как и другие президенты Центральной Азии зависим от Кремля. Неужели Вы думаете, что они просто так воздерживаются в голосовании ООН? Следите за новостями. В прошлом году президент РФ пригрозил президентам Центральной Азии, что если кто-то из ЦА будет противоречить "России", т.е. Кремлю, то "Россия" примет меры. Сколько раз арестовывали нефть Казахстана без какой-либо причины? Сколько раз Казахстанским бизнесменам кремлисты перекрывали железнодорожные пути? Казахстанским бизнесменам разных Национальностей, даже этническим Русским Казахстана. Кстати, а знаете ли Вы, что 50% Казахстанской нефти и газа принадлежит Российским компаниям? "Благодарите" за это первого недопрезидента Казахстана. P.S.: Естественно, этнические Русские Казахстана не имеют отношение к террористической политики Кремля.
The Kaszak people have done a masterful job of walking a tightrope and turned their natural fearce warlike nature into a wonderful change...they have learned a better way just as china and Germany have done so well...Japan is the shinning light and our best teacher in this and we all are eager to welcome the Kaszak people in a necessary endeavor 💙💋
unfortunately, we didn't choose our geography, the longest land border with Russia, yet authorities tying up all Kazakh economic sector with Russia, this was their blindspot. but as it has been said in the video, it is very much accurate that younger generation of Kazakhstan does NOT see essential ties with Russia at all. so it is all about our government and their decision (without prior consulting people) to be a part of all pro-Russian economic and military organizations. Many people including myself though, would like our country to withdraw all those organizations.
Wtf are you talking about? There’s no real opposition in Kazakhstan. Those who really wanted changes from dictatorship to democracy were killed and/or tortured. Nowadays there are many people who are imprisoned as well. This video doesn’t show a real situation.
Astana literally means capital. So in kazakh if you say Astana is the capital of Kazakhstan (Астана - Қазақстанның астанасы) is like saying Capital is the capital of Kazakhstan
As being young Kazakh I am against the Soviet Union, Russia, and China. Nowadays, we are more Westernized. So we don't prefer either of these countries above. We just want to live in a free country where the value of free speech and no bribes and no corruption.

Kazakhstan would be willing to drift away from Russia and support anti-Russian sanctions. But unfortunately, today it does not have many opportunities to do so. One of the main balls of Kazakhstan that Russia is squeezing in its hands is Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which so far has no alternative. Secondly, as you have already understood from the video Kazakhstan has a poorly competitive army, brought up by the templates of the Soviet military school. There is no big hope on China, the West is far away, no one will help us like Ukraine. For me, as a Kazakhstani, it would be good to hear if the Western democratic countries, which Kazakhstan also strives to belong to, would work together to find a better solution to the current situation.

May I ask, would the people prefer to have the name of their country transliterated as Kazakhstan or Qazaqstan, and their demonym and ethnicity transliterated as Kazakhstani and Kazakh or Qazaqstani and Qazaq? I’ve recently learned after typing it for so long that the Kazakh transliteration was actually from the Russian word, whereas the Kazakh/Qazaq word is supposed to be transliterated as Qazaq. It seems like how for so long we’ve been writing (and saying, as there is a pronunciation difference as well) Kiev, the Russian word, instead of Kyiv, the Ukrainian word.
Just keep up with the balancing policy. The more your country goes to China, the more support it will get from Russia and the west. It's fine as long as you don't align yourself fully to one side. The worst choice would be to act as the west's proxy and to fight against both Russia and China.
I think their best course of action is to sign a NATO style agreement with the other central Asian countries and invest heavily in the military. With 77 million population in the region, they can stay neutral and trade with everyone.

Kazakhstan has land in Europe (Similar to Turkiyé, only a small amount), it could join the European Union, if it did I feel a lot will welcome them. EU might help grow Kazakhstans economy and standard of living, but there will also be many other issues
Kazakh people should first start getting rid of Russian language, like we actively do in Ukraine. Of course, there is a significant part of Ukrainian population has been russified during Soviets and even independent Ukraine, and those people feel very uncomfortable with such policy and it's quite fair, but Russia is like octopus without its tentacles for post-Soviet satellites "cleaned up" from Russian language.
Ukraine should learn from Kazakhstan, not the other way. Ukraine had 52 million population in 1989, how large is Ukrainian population now? De-facto somewhere between 20 and 30 millions. Kazakhstan started from 16 millions and have 19 now. Ukraine has achieved nothing in 30 years except for all kind of conflicts. Soon enough Kazakhstan will have way more weight than Ukraine. Who could imagine it 30 years ago?
@@neverknowsbest2879 You better make your time learn our post soviet period history and what is oligarchat and how it promoted corruption and led country to impoverishment. How our country under russian survailence could not manage to develop political democratic institutions. You can't even imagine how everything change into positive side when Ukraine stand on proeuroean development path and started to break all ties with autocratic imperialistic country.
@@neverknowsbest2879 Having russia as an ally being its satellite means you will looose at some point your history, culture, language, traditions and will be absorbed as it always been part of imperia. Russia doesn't respect people roots.
I also think that it is necessary to move away from the Russian language, but only for ethnic Kazakhs, who are 70%. But let the rest of the diasporas develop their languages.
Whenever I watch videos about Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 (my country) and see that the purpose is to mention politics there it just feels so wrong when they interview mostly a group of people who are somehow related to politics or Russian speaking people. It makes us feel as if commoners and masses really have nothing to do with the issue. What’s the point of making a video and generalising the political thoughts when you are yourselves biased about whom to interview. It would be great to hear what citizens think of the situation itself. Having said that, your content is helpful to many of the viewers. Would like to thank you for your job and for spreading awareness 🙏🏻✨🥹
*I am from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 and we suffer most time from our dictator prezident Toqayev* . He ordered to shoot without any warning to his own people in last year. He killed more than 200 kazakh people😢
As a Kazakh, would you rather being closer to the West (So, most of Europe, USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, etc) or being close to the East (China, Russia, and such)
We kazakhs are tied to russia in every issue not because we like Russia but because our former dictator nazarbayev did everything in favor of Russia and against the interests of our nation.after the collapse of the USSR we even didn't need Russian language but it was forcibly made a second language in our country by the dictator.and today the world community think that Russian language is our mother tongue.when our neighbor countries in central asia revived their languages after the dissolution of USSR our dictator again made our nation a puppet state(politically and economically)of Russia
Another excellent piece of analysis and explanation, thank you team DW. The topic is indeed like the region, fascinating and important. Would love a follow on report on neighbouring countries, in particular Kyrgyzstan and Azerbaijan.

Kazakhstan is between 2 totalitarian powers, it is a very difficult for us with our big territory, low population and economy. Our hope is democratization of Russia, that would be our path to democracy, but at this moment we have to run between rain drops in our foreign policy

Did DW not remmeber kazakhstan president ask putin for assistance for putting down a uprising like a year ago. I think they are very close to russia....
right. this video showed it like kazakhstan is between russia's and china's politics, and a little west. its true, however kazakhstan is mostly influenced by russia. a lot. even though we have some disagreements with russia, we dont stand up for ourselves. the main reason is that longest border. sadly, i dont see how kazakhstan can ever be not close to russia.our safety does depend on russia currently. the good thing is that most kazakh people seem to understand these complicated relationships.
@@accountnew7030 nah, not in the current political climate. India has historically been on good terms with Russia (they have a shared weapons development program) and they are currently buying oil/gas from Russia. Secondly China would HATE it if India was seen to be growing there, China would prefer them to slide towards Europe as Europe is the end destination for Chinese goods (belt and road). Turkey is a mess until it has a leader that isn’t an extremist that talks about the Ottoman Empire 2.0. Turkey would be a factor but not as big as Europe Union, especially as Armenia and Georgia want to join the EU which are required for Kazakh trade to Europe/Turkey to occur.

Kazakhstan has a population of 18 mln as opposed to ukraine's 40 mln. And they definitely know that they will be annihilated by Russia if they try to do what Ukrainians did. They stand at a tricky place geographically speaking. Rn everything is working fine and Kazakh policy makers will keep that in mind.

In my opinoin, Kazakhstan should keep distance both Russia and China in terms of influence. Because not only Kazakhs , but also other Central Asia's countries have doubt about these two countries. In order to be strong in all work of line Central Asia's countries have to make strong relationship and partnership each other, their political ideas as well as decisions must be same. I strongly believe that Takaev are doing very well right now.Despite the fact that try to close Chine economicly, he is democratizing Kazakhstan, Tokaev can tell his opinion and mindset to Russia without doubt. He can flexible evey political and economical situations.Armed forces of Kazakhstan is modernising and they are making drones with Turkey and BTRs. Tokaev has long term plan for future of Kazakhstan.

Essentially we upgraded our education to the highest level in the world and our urban planning mixed rich and poor, side by side, and often attending the same schools. Then, a few years ago Canada started pumping out science, technology and industry roadmaps that USA and everybody else copies. Kazakhstan just imported the best and brightest of Russia. That's a great resource. Respecting security from Russia and China, Kazakhstan may want some status with NATO and EU. Kazakhstan may be forced to replace Russia's energy exports to EU, aka Pax EuroAmericas since the Deutsche Churchill, Stohl's Turning Point Speech. Obviously the Allies need to ensure Kazakhstan has distribution channels for their exports and every form of export, roads, rail, air, pipeline, sea, internet, fiberoptic, satellite, and every form of port must be secure for Kazakhstan.

Our ancestors fought enough for our independence and they fought with all our neighbors. Now in the modern world, we want to become a second Switzerland, because so many wars and deaths were not in vain, but this should not happen again in the future.
We have a large and resource-rich country and it is developing rapidly. We have the second economy in the CIS after Russia and the 4th economy among post-Soviet countries. We have been building our state for too long and it should not be destroyed.
But I think the West and Europe should pay attention to us and guarantee our security, because geographically we are not very lucky. But no matter what happens, we are not afraid and are ready to defend our interests. Compared to Europe, we have a weak economy and a weak army, but our situation definitely deserves the attention of the whole world.

Kazakhstan balances well between powers, building its own independent policy, but do not forget about the most key partner of Kazakhstan, this is Turkey, this is the main thing
Thank you very much.

@@striderwhiston9897 Western investors have thoroughly burned themselves in Russia. With the CCP's war rhetoric, many investors are now considering the safety of their investments in China.

In my opinion, no country should act as a "life saver." Every sovereign nation, including ours, does not require help from any external country, whether it's the so-called "West," China, or Russia.
Providing more weapons to Kazakhstan from the West might be perceived as a threat by Russia or China. Additionally, China's economic influence in Kazakhstan may be viewed as problematic by the West, as both parties profit from Kazakhstan's natural resources. This creates a never-ending cycle of complications.
As Kazakhs, we require only equal and fair treatment in economic, social, political, and security matters. But this is a challenging problem in today's world, where the West sees us as Borats and Kazakhstan as a Kremlin puppet state. Similarly, Russian people take our relationship for granted and misinterpret respect as weakness. Chinese people perceive us as people holding gold but lacking the know-how to turn it into money, so they choose to benefit from it themselves. Although I cannot offer a solution, I propose one thing that can help.
We should NOT discriminate against Kazakhs, or anyone in the world.
Blame the so called comedian who came up with the Borat character.
I am chinese, to be honest, China is not interested in the natural resources, which everybody saudi/Russia/iran/Venezuela/latin America/Africa/indonesia are all selling natural resources like crazy. However the more choices available, the more stable the prices are. all the developed country are around the coast line, because the ease of transportation. It is the same for China, if we want to develop western China, we need to connect them to other regions, and kazakhstan is a link to the middle east, the alternative route would be afghanistan, which is too unstable at this point. 🫠
I am pleasantly surprised to hear how open minded the Kazakh people are, looking out to the world and seeing through all the theater shows that Russia and China put up trying to gain influence in their territory. They are smart to trust none of the 2 big neighbors. I hope their elite plays their cards right in order to maintain peace in their land.

Sorry for writing such a long reply. I really enjoy thoughtful discussions.
I want to mention that population of Kazakhstan is ~20 million, while population of China is over a billion. It’s natural for Kazakhstan citizens and government to feel that their identity is threatened. USSR deporting whole nations into Kazakhstan and widespread famine have made Kazakhs a minority on their own ground. Dzhungars, who were Kazakhs enemies for a long time, no longer exist as a nation.
The agreement was made to improve the diplomatic relations between countries. Kazakhstan was and still is under Russian influence for a long time. It goes back to Imperial Russia and Kazakh Khaganate. Willingly fall under China’s influence was a move to counter act the historical oppression. Both nations are powerfull and being in good terms with them is important.

I suppose it is not the other people who can understand the real situation in Kazakhstan. It is the Kazakhs themselves, who understand better than the people who live in other parts of the world. Trust me, the situation of Ukraine and Kazakhstan cannot be compared from any perspective, whether cultural, political, economic, etc. The factors that affected the situation in Ukraine are only applicable to Ukraine itself and no other country. Secondly, I want to say that there is no anxiety among Kazakh people, contrary to the claims of that correspondent. I think over-evaluation can sometimes be not very plausible. Everyone is living a peaceful life as before. For those who don't have enough knowledge about Kazakhstan, it is a peaceful country that maintains a 'rational' policy for everyone and everything. Kazakhs historically had their own state and will have it in the future too. Kazakhs are descendants of Turks and Kazakhstan is a descendant of Turkic Khanate. Applying a general conclusion to everything without considering details and nuances will at least give a flawed result.

Did DW not remmeber kazakhstan president ask putin for assistance for putting down a uprising like a year ago. I think they are very close to russia....
They also kicked out russian officials after bringing back order
right. this video showed it like kazakhstan is between russia's and china's politics, and a little west. its true, however kazakhstan is mostly influenced by russia. a lot. even though we have some disagreements with russia, we dont stand up for ourselves. the main reason is that longest border. sadly, i dont see how kazakhstan can ever be not close to russia.our safety does depend on russia currently. the good thing is that most kazakh people seem to understand these complicated relationships.
Kazakhstan will drift towards Europe to balance out relations with China and Russia.
slow drift
As Kazakh I hope so. We have really good relationships with Western world.
@@accountnew7030 nah, not in the current political climate.
India has historically been on good terms with Russia (they have a shared weapons development program) and they are currently buying oil/gas from Russia.
Secondly China would HATE it if India was seen to be growing there, China would prefer them to slide towards Europe as Europe is the end destination for Chinese goods (belt and road).
Turkey is a mess until it has a leader that isn’t an extremist that talks about the Ottoman Empire 2.0.
Turkey would be a factor but not as big as Europe Union, especially as Armenia and Georgia want to join the EU which are required for Kazakh trade to Europe/Turkey to occur.
@@user-hf8hb1ob8uuiikj you know how historically France allied with Russia and Germany was court in the middle?
I see it similar as the EU allying with the Central Asian nations in the far future honestly.
I doubt that they want European values throw at their faces at every little opportunity European countries want to pressure them to then provoque another revolution like Libya and export their resources with EU condition's on human rights
Since Kazakhstan has oil it has its own power and doesn’t need Russian or Chinese help !
Good

What a good comment.
If you had as much resources per capita you'd be no worse.
It's because we have little population (thanks to soviet terror during which Stalin and Goloschekin starved to death 70% of Kazakh population and executed a lot) and a lot of natural resources (thanks to our ancestors who fought everyone during centuries to give us this rich land)

This is great journalism, comprehensive, neutral and fresh information.
I love Kazakhstan, best place I've ever visited. Such kind people
Kazakhstan has a population of 18 mln as opposed to ukraine's 40 mln. And they definitely know that they will be annihilated by Russia if they try to do what Ukrainians did. They stand at a tricky place geographically speaking. Rn everything is working fine and Kazakh policy makers will keep that in mind.
China will not let Russia to do it,
Kazakhstan population is 20 millions, worldwide kazakhs are somewhere between 25 to 30 millions

Lmao copping! Before mongol was even a thing. China and Russia have already existed thousands of years especially China. Mongols have only conquered their territories but not their people. On the contrary Majority of mongols Gengis Kan's offsprings included have all assimilated into local cultures. Who is been conquered? Think again.

Brazil has to learn from Kazakhstan how to be neutral.
Brazil is a member of BRICS.
It's not for you to decide either you can be neutral or not. Unlike Swiss the country that located in the specific geographic location therefore they can be neutral. Brazil has to pick side other wise she'll be wrecked by China and the US at the same time.

Казахстан верно и хорошо развивается. И выбрал военный союз с тюркскими братьями - ТУРАН, а теперь и гарант на независимость и дружбу от Китая. Экономика растёт, казахи на голых степях построили города и это только начало. Казахстан будет процветать как Сингапур который дружил с Китаем, или как другие реально развитые страны, ИншаЛла, вот увидите!. Почти без проблем владеют англииским, турецким , русским, и многие говорят на китайском а казахскии кончно знают все. Нефть продают через Каспии и Азербайджан а не через трубу россии который подозрительно часто ломается, после того как Токаев сказал что казахи ни признают никаких ни днр ни лнр сидя в россии. Да и план кремлёвских раскусили все - они не друзья казахам
God save Kazakhstan and Kazakhs!
It seems odd that the video nor any of the comments talk about the assistance of Russia to quell uprisings in Kazakstan in January 2022
In my opinoin, Kazakhstan should keep distance both Russia and China in terms of influence. Because not only Kazakhs , but also other Central Asia's countries have doubt about these two countries. In order to be strong in all work of line Central Asia's countries have to make strong relationship and partnership each other, their political ideas as well as decisions must be same. I strongly believe that Takaev are doing very well right now.Despite the fact that try to close Chine economicly, he is democratizing Kazakhstan, Tokaev can tell his opinion and mindset to Russia without doubt. He can flexible evey political and economical situations.Armed forces of Kazakhstan is modernising and they are making drones with Turkey and BTRs. Tokaev has long term plan for future of Kazakhstan.

Very very interesting and informative
Canada has been in many, many difficult situations with USA. We are like an old married couple that argues a lot. Then Trump declared "The Canadians outsmarted us." Essentially we upgraded our education to the highest level in the world and our urban planning mixed rich and poor, side by side, and often attending the same schools. Then, a few years ago Canada started pumping out science, technology and industry roadmaps that USA and everybody else copies. Kazakhstan just imported the best and brightest of Russia. That's a great resource. Respecting security from Russia and China, Kazakhstan may want some status with NATO and EU. Kazakhstan may be forced to replace Russia's energy exports to EU, aka Pax EuroAmericas since the Deutsche Churchill, Stohl's Turning Point Speech. Obviously the Allies need to ensure Kazakhstan has distribution channels for their exports and every form of export, roads, rail, air, pipeline, sea, internet, fiberoptic, satellite, and every form of port must be secure for Kazakhstan. Otherwise Kazakhstan may be indirectly hurt by Putler. Kazakhstan immigrants in Canada may be helpful.
Yeah we have a great education system, then anyone with a good education who actually wants to make money moves to the US. Half the cost of living and twice the wages.
Yeah, that's why Canadians are suffocating from taxes and the president's stupidity and are fleeing Canada))
@@foilhat1138 It is great to see Mexican-Canadian couples being formed in the US, though.
@@foilhat1138 as a Kazakh who graduated from Canadian high school and got secondary education, the quality of education is a mediocre, I mean I could easily compare it to Kazakh and pin point obvious pros and cons of both systems.

Our ancestors fought enough for our independence and they fought with all our neighbors. Now in the modern world, we want to become a second Switzerland, because so many wars and deaths were not in vain, but this should not happen again in the future.
We have a large and resource-rich country and it is developing rapidly. We have the second economy in the CIS after Russia and the 4th economy among post-Soviet countries. We have been building our state for too long and it should not be destroyed.
But I think the West and Europe should pay attention to us and guarantee our security, because geographically we are not very lucky. But no matter what happens, we are not afraid and are ready to defend our interests. Compared to Europe, we have a weak economy and a weak army, but our situation definitely deserves the attention of the whole world.
A Taiwan based group has prepared a China influence index for 81 countries
So the more influence China enjoys in a country the higher is it ranked .
Hopefully the west would find a way to resolve oil, gas and fuel shortage due to the sanctions against Russia to control inflation and rising prices especially in PH ❤
The oil per barrel is piss cheap tho.
Its the deglobalization which slows down the economy and makes every one poorer which brings up the prices and inflaiton.
And the deglobalization is the result of all the conflicts arising in the world.
