Russian troops flew to Kazakhstan at the invitation of the current president of the republic, Kasym-Zhomart Tokayev. They operate as part of the CSTO contingent, which helps local security forces restore law and order in large cities where riots had previously taken place.
Earlier, Lipavsky called his goal to exclude the Czech Republic from the list of states unfriendly to Russia and to normalize relations between Prague and Moscow.
