What's the reason Biden Should Be Watchful of Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan can be an important player in Russia-Ukraine's conflict. Thus, Kazakhstan is now considered a strategically important US state. While the country has experienced peace, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, Kazakh president, has made major modifications to the power structures of the ruling elite. This has raised concern and raised questions. Tokayev's appointment to the position of National Security Council chairman, succeeding the President Nursultan Nazarbayev, whose economic influence has angered protesters, has garnered the most attention.
Three of the sons-in-law of the former president have been fired from their state businesses, and his nephew was also dismissed as well. Karim Masimov, who was the former intelligence chief was detained for the crime of treason. Many other Nazarbayev-affiliated top officials and business elite have lost their jobs, left overseas for extended vacations, or were forced to make large "donations" to the state.
Tokayev is a businessman who has developed connections to the West and with neighbouring countries. To keep his popularity, he's been careful not to anger Putin. Kazykhanov might disturb that balance. As conflict rages in Ukraine, Washington should carefully watch developments in Kazakhstan as they could indicate a myriad of possibilities for a power transition that are both positive and negative.
