“How to get out of this situation? No one knows, because there are positions from both sides. However, on the other hand, there is such a moment and an opportunity to freeze all this,” K.J. Tokayev told V. Putin at the Russia-Kazakhstan summit in Omsk, Siberia.
“It’s a pity that young people are dying (…) All this must be stopped,” he added.
Kazakhstan is an ally of Russia, but the country has never expressed approval for Moscow’s military operation in Ukraine, which has caused concern among the Kremlin’s partners in Central Asia.
