Exercise of the Russian army to repel the attack of a sabotage group.

Foreign troops will be stationed in Kazakhstan at the request of the President of the country, most likely among there will be mainly parts of Russia and Belarus. This unprecedented move is seen as a consequence of telephone conversations earlier today between Presidents Vladimir Putin, Alexander Lukashenko and Kasim-Jomart Tokayev.

The first comments of the news are that Tokayev, who took over the presidency only two years ago, fails to control the country and especially the power structures, in which his predecessor Nursultan Nazarbayev is still very strong. Since yesterday, Tokayev has been clearing out those close to Nazarbayev, who until recently were considered untouchables, but he has no choice but to take a risk and trust Putin and Lukashenko, despite the fact that many of his compatriots will not forgive his request for military service.

It will probably be sent in the next few hours in the form of the Collective Peacekeeping Force of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, which includes Russia. , Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Armenia. It is not reported how many they will number, where and for what period of time these units will be located. According to a Russian MP, it is mainly about the protection of infrastructure sites.

(According to official data, the contingents of the organization prepared for this purpose include about 3600 people, who are in constant readiness only for such missions. These are specially trained military, police and civilian employees, as well as various means. The only specialized peacekeeping motorized rifle brigade in the structure of the Russian army is located in the Samara region. It was established in 2005 as part of the ground forces and was in Abkhazia until 2008, when the military clash with Georgia broke out.

През ноември 2020 г. почти две хиляди военни от бригадата бяха разположени за контрол върху примирието в Нагорни Карабах заедно с 90 бронетраспортьора и 380 автомобила и специална техника.

In November 2020, almost 2,000 troops from the brigade were deployed to monitor the ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, along with 90 armored personnel carriers and 380 vehicles and a special technique.

The decision on the mission in Kazakhstan was announced by the Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, who is currently the chairman of the Collective Security Council.

Before that, Tokayev officially turned to the heads of state of the five countries for help with allegations of well-prepared terrorist attacks abroad. gangs taking over main sites in the country. The President did not provide evidence for his allegations.

“In connection with the address of President Kasim-Jomart Tokayev and given the threat to national security and sovereignty of the Republic of Kazakhstan, caused by external interference, the Council, in accordance with Article 4 of the Collective Security Treaty, decided to send a Collective Peacekeeping Force for a limited period of time to stabilize and normalize the situation in that country, “Pashinyan wrote in “Facebook”

Observers note that the biggest chaos occurred in Almaty as soon as he was removed from a key post in the security forces. Samat Abish, nephew of Nazarbayev. Subsequent attacks on administrative buildings, arson, looting and skirmishes seem possible only if law enforcement is inactive on a staggering scale.

Several hours later, the new leadership of the KGB and security forces brought in units, regained the airport, and a major “cleansing operation” was being prepared for the morning of January 6. The question is why Tokayev calls for foreign forces when it seems that the Kazakhs are able to cope. A possible answer is that the president, who is already considered a transitional figure in local politics, does not trust his own national structures, Novaya Gazeta commented.

Article 4 of the Treaty in question states that if one of the participating countries is subjected to aggression (armed attack threatening security, stability, territorial integrity and sovereignty), this will be considered by the others as aggression against all states under the treaty. At the request of the Party concerned, the latter shall immediately provide assistance, including military assistance, as well as support with the means at its disposal, exercising its rights of collective defense in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter.

The UN Security Council shall be notified immediately of the measures taken. In implementing the measures taken, the participating countries adhere to the UN Charter
