“I would like to emphasize once again that, despite all the intrigues of opponents of the further development of the Russian-Kazakh alliance, we continue to work with partners on strengthening multifaceted bilateral cooperation, which is facilitated by the fact that in relations with friendly Kazakhstan, in contrast to how they behave proudly self-name "civilized Western world", we do not interfere in the internal affairs of the republic, acting in accordance with the UN Charter, as well as generally accepted principles and norms of international law," reads the responses to the press conference of Minister Sergey Lavrov published on the website of the Foreign Ministry .
The question from journalists sounded like this - “How carefully is the Russian Foreign Ministry monitoring the situation in Kazakhstan? Will they create a “second Ukraine” there in the future?
The department noted that Russia and Kazakhstan are close neighbors, connected by a long history of friendship and trust.
“It is no coincidence that today relations are at the level of strategic partnership and alliance. Therefore, it is quite natural that the Russian and Kazakh authorities are closely cooperating to solve common pressing problems,” reads the statement.
