#KAZAKHSTAN'S DEMACHE TO #EU: TASMAGAMBETOV LEADS #CSTO

On November 23, 2022, it became known about the appointment of Imangali #Tasmagambetov as Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) for the next three years.

Such a step by Kazakhstan in the midst of #Russia's most brutal military aggression against the civilian civilian population of #Ukraine is a demonstration of Kazakhstan's complicity in the leadership of #Putin's military-political bloc.

as a state sponsor of terrorism and a state that "uses means of terrorism" against the civilian population of #Ukraine.

The upcoming resolution of the #EuropeanParliament was discussed publicly and #Kazakhstan was well aware of this. Therefore, #Tasmagambetov consciously,

as one of the most trusted persons of #Nazarbayev and #Tokayev, headed the military-political organization, realizing that the #CSTO would be recognized as a terrorist organization due to the key role of the Kremlin in its creation

and management to achieve Putin’s military-terrorist goals.

This is another demonstration of support for the Kremlin’s military aggression against Ukraine and the gratitude of the Tokayev-Nazarbayev regime for the mass executions of peaceful protesters in January 2022 with
6/10
the help of the CSTO troops in Kazakhstan.

What is the significance of Tasmagambetov's figure? It was believed that Tasmagambetov could become Nazarbayev's successor. His son-in-law Kenes #Rakishev - one of the TOP 50 richest people in Kazakhstan
7/10
- is one of the wallets of Nursultan Nazarbayev / Timur #Kulibayev and a close friend of Ramzan #Kadyrov. And all this against the background of the inclusion by the #EuropeanParliament of "#Kadyrovites" in the list of #EU terrorists...

Incredible courage, right?
8/10
Tasmagambetov held key government positions in Kazakhstan: Prime Minister, Minister of Defense, Head of the Presidential Administration, Mayor of #Almaty and #Astana, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to #Russia.

Apparently, the pickets will be around the clock, since from January 25 to March 22 all places and all time slots are occupied. The akimat did not offer an alternative day, time, place.

URGENTLY! ATTACK ON THE SON OF DINAR EGEUBAYEVA

On the night of February 4-5, 2023, #journalist Dinara #Egeubayeva reported that an armed attack (with a pistol) had been committed on her son.
The son of Dinara Egeubayeva is a citizen of a member state of the #EuropeanUnion.
2/7
This attack is connected not only with the self-nomination of Dinara Egeubayeva as a deputy to the Mazhilis from a single-mandate district in #Almaty, but also with her consistent and fair criticism of #Tokayev, interviews with victims of torture in January 2022,

@hrw @OSCE

and the requirements of an international investigation into the January executions and #torture.

This armed attack on the son of Dinara Egeubayeva is part of a systemic attack by the #Kazakh authorities on her.
