The conversation with Russian Ambassador Alexei Borodavkin, held at the Kazakh Foreign Ministry, was tough and serious. This was announced on Thursday, October 6, in the Kazakh Foreign Ministry.
“The ambassador was summoned to the Foreign Ministry for a serious conversation. We discussed the statement of the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Maria Zakharova, which does not correspond to the spirit of equal strategic partnership. The conversation was quite tough,” the ministry said. “RIA News”.
The fact that the Russian ambassador was summoned to the Kazakh Foreign Ministry became known a day earlier. This was preceded by statements by Zakharova due to the return to Astana of the Ukrainian ambassador Piotr Vrublevsky, who publicly called for “killing as many Russians as possible.”
On October 4, Zakharova said that Moscow was counting on Kazakhstan to take steps “to expel this odious nationalist as soon as possible.” She added that Kazakh Ambassador to Russia Ermek Kosherbaev was summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry, who was told that Vrublevsky’s return to Astana was categorically unacceptable.
In August, Vrublevsky gave an interview to one of the Kazakh bloggers. In it, he said that “the more Russians are killed now, the less the next generation will have to destroy.” Commenting on this statement, Zakharova stressed that only the ambassador of a terrorist regime could say such words. On the same day, the head of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed to give a legal assessment of the diplomat’s appeal.
The next day, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan reported that the department had summoned the Ukrainian ambassador, and a protest was expressed to him. Later it was noted that Vrublevsky apologized for his statements about the Russians and left Kazakhstan at the request of the authorities of the republic. According to media reports, in early September, he flew to Warsaw, but soon returned to the republic.
