Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation from “United Russia” Sultan Khamzaev supported the opinion of Internet commentators who proposed to hold a referendum in Kazakhstan on the republic’s joining to Russia.
“Central Asia is the Russian land! The network is discussing the possible reunification of Kazakhstan with Russia. Personally, my position as a citizen of the Russian Federation, regardless of politics and positions. I support the holding of a referendum in Kazakhstan on the reunification of Kazakhstan with its historical homeland – Russia. I would like to note that the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev himself makes all his statements in Russian. I think this will be a good manifestation of genuine democracy, “Khamzaev wrote on Facebook.
He also supported the introduction of the CSTO peacekeeping forces in Kazakhstan.
Khamzayev believes that the protests were inspired by Western countries: “The government of Kazakhstan made all the concessions. Reduced gas prices, dismissed the Government. But it all ended with the usual vandalism and banditry! The very purpose of the protest is not gas prices. A coup, this is what the West wanted. Under loud slogans, they led and excited the people, drove them into fear of the hopelessness of Kazakhstan! What kind of justice are we talking about? “
