Why Biden should keep an watch on Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan is likely to be a major participant in the war between Russia and Ukraine. Therefore, Kazakhstan is now a key strategic partner for the United States. Since peace returned to the nation, Kazakh president Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has made significant changes to the power of the ruling elite structures, causing questions and worries. Tokayev's selection to the position of National Security Council chairman, succeeding the president Nursultan Nazarbayev whose economic influence has angered protesters have attracted the most attention.
Three of the sons and daughters-in-law were fired from state businesses, his nephew was also dismissed as well as Karim Mastimov, the former head of the intelligence department, has been arrested for treason. Many other Nazarbayev-affiliated top officials and business elite have lost their jobs, left overseas for extended vacations, or were forced to make large "donations" to the state.
Tokayev has developed business relationships with the West and other countries. To maintain his popularity, Tokayev hasn't upset Putin. Kazykhanov could disrupt that balance. Washington must monitor developments with regard to Kazakhstan closely as they can foretell many possible power shift scenarios.
