LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky named one of the reasons for the protests in Kazakhstan. In his opinion, one of the factors provoking them was external influence. The politician wrote about this in his Telegram-channel.
Zhirinovsky explained that the situation in Kazakhstan was influenced by neighboring Muslim countries, where religious uprisings took place, as well as Afghanistan, where members of the Taliban came to power. (terrorist organization, banned in Russia)…
“Secondly, it would be beneficial for the Americans to knock out one of Russia’s allies in Central Asia and help establish at least a neutral regime there, like in Armenia or Moldova, and they would close the region from Russia. It would only be necessary to change the regime in Uzbekistan in order to finally weaken the influence of Russia, ”concluded Zhirinovsky.
