welcome to asia our program is back in kazakhstan in touch nursultan and we are not in a hurry to the studio sin is not to enjoy a short kazakh summer. moreover, a wonderful view of the whole city opens from here on its central object , the presidential palace of akardu, and this is very interesting. what is the view from there now that there is on the horizon in the country the most important event constitutions and in general the whole region. now it is so rich in events, as it was not, probably, we will talk about all the most interesting things from the world of asia for a very long time. so, the change of the constitution in kazakhstan for this purpose by the president of the country, by his own march tokaev , a nationwide referendum was initiated, the reform

provides for more than 50 amendments 33 articles the main idea, kazakhstan is moving away from the super-presidential republic, among other important changes, the death penalty is prohibited the president is not allowed to be a member of a political party, the number of terms is limited states actively discussed the ban. relatives of the head of state to occupy high-ranking positions. in addition, the status of elbasy is no longer determined by the institution. but the land and its subsoil belong to the people by law. i want to note the upcoming referendum - this is not the final stage of the political transformation of the country. this is, in fact, her beginning work. just starting. since life itself and the need and citizens will inevitably put before us new tasks, as we have already noted. the most active discussion was a provision prohibiting the president's relatives from holding high government positions and on the status of the first president. it must be said that

nursultan nazarbayev himself has rarely appeared in public lately, but on the eve of such an important event as a national referendum. the first president gave interviews and made a number of important statements. and done. it was in a rather unusual format. a telephone interview for the telegram channel of political scientist daniyar shimbaev to him and they asked for details. hello your interview with the elbasy is probably the first of its kind over the phone, and yes, also for the telegram channel. what do you think about this particular format? i think they wanted to do a little quickly. that's because after all, you had preliminary conversations about how to publish where? here, uh, this is a certain question, but that’s why i suggested a telegram channel, that is, we read it quickly, and as a source, and naturally it was clear that it would spread further without any problems, get divorced across networks and sites, and so on in the interview were touched upon row

uncomfortable questions about the involvement of people close to the first president in the january events about his relatives. here's to your point of view. which answers, and cause the most interest the most attention on what the past six months, uh to uh, means to criticize and in the first place. those who, as it were, recently, that is, kissed the shoes, yes, that is, went. uh, literally. how to understand that she went very strong. so i think that the criticism immediately affected, uh, and the relatives of the president of the first, here is his status constitutional. so naturally, let's say, that is, it is connected with this mountain, therefore, i think that ruslan will explain. i would like to go over the main issues, how to go over, that is, to outline that, if someone violated the law as an adult, then he should be held accountable, but criminals can only be named by decision there. here, that is, everything

was not protected. yes, but they are about this, that is, it shows that, uh, as if hinting, it’s enough to run such a business company. that's because we still need to understand what happened over the years. yes for years of management did not film anyone, how often exactly those questions, after all. i think that nazarbanil would still like people to remember the contribution he made to the construction of an independent kazakhstan. that's not the negative. yes , let's say that spilled on him recently touched. you, of course, and referendums on changing the status of the elbasy. in your opinion, in his opinion, how important is this really ? about the first president in law for these security given then you uh, finds transit. yes, that is , the security council is actually the people of kazakhstan. here is the church in the management of the fund is the most handy and, in addition to this representation in the nordan party. yes, these positions are largely

symbolic. yes, that is, in kazakhstani practice, that is, it is not the place that paints the person, yes, the person is the place, yes, that is, the position, that is, they began to know as soon as nazarbayev was engaged in this. that is, it is at the level of a symbol. yes, let's say, but it's not clear at the level informal decision making. it is clear that uh 0.1 of the president was huge. so, as the positions and authorities of the new president were strengthened, i probably gradually folded these positions in conditions where it is clear that when there is a head of state, yes or a denomination, because i constantly arose question. which of them is the most important? yes, here are the last 3 years, as if this discussion was one of the main ones. well, that is, as if nazarbayev, uh, confirmed that he kind of agrees with uh, depriving himself of these statuses. here they would be declared by something that, as it were, interests him not at all in status. yes, let's say how much it is, but political, therefore, i think that the discount was he supported the policy, uh and he supports his reforms

and alexander will go to the referendum to practice changes to the institution were resorted to in all countries of central asia and now they are actively working on the preparation of amendments is underway a special commission has already been created in uzbekistan. it will work on the principle of society as the initiator of reforms, a serious constitutional renewal is planned, as shavkat mirziyoyev said. the fundamental law of the land must officially assign the status of a social state to the republic, which does everything necessary for the well-being of its citizens, separate articles will relate to the development of family institutions and state support for young people, in addition, according to the president, multi-ethnic and multi-regional uzbekistan should reflect the principles of interethnic harmony in the constitution, recall other news the past week. emomali rahmon paid an official visit to uzbekistan this week, held talks with shavkat mirziyoyev, as a result, the parties signed a number of

agreements, including on increasing trade between the republics, and also launched the joint construction of two new hydroelectric power stations in the river basin, zeravshan, the head of the kazakh foreign ministry mukhtart. leuberdi visited the vatican where he met with pope francis to discuss the agenda of the september congress, the leaders of world and traditional religions to be held in nur-sultan, as the pontiff reportedly highly appreciated the contribution of kazakhstan to the promotion of interfaith dialogue kyrgyz activists, who are members of the international association for the control of biological research sent an appeal to the president of kazakhstan and do not ask to stop the construction of a biological laboratory for infectious strains in the zhambyl region. directly at the borders with kyrgyzstan, they fear that the level of protection at the facility will be insufficient. non-stop visits of western envoys to eastern capitals, the most powerful pressure in order to turn away even from the thought of supporting russia, officials and representatives near state

funds travel traditionally with gifts. mostly purely symbolic, the chairman of the osce, the head of the polish ministry of foreign affairs, s bigney fraus, on may 31, until june 6, visits kazakhstan, uzbekistan and mongolia, everywhere, summit meetings, assurances of support and hope for further cooperation , there was a special activity this week, especially clearly such negotiations were held. a telephone conversation took place with the president of poland, anzhi enduda, at the initiative of the polish side, the occasion was the thirtieth anniversary of the establishment diplomatic relations already in person in almaty, such a meeting was held by the special representative of the un secretary general for afghanistan, debroylines, in accordance with the agreements reached, the temporarily removed mission office. the un is now located in alma-ata. however. de facto. he's already moved there about what's going on. in the shadows, they also speak quite directly, the co-chairman of the socialist movement of kazakhstan, ainur kurmanov, during a round table in bishkek, said that not only in kazakhstan , but throughout the region, now more than ever, before

the british intelligence services as a whole became more active. ah, western intelligence. e, they operate quite actively on the territory of kazakhstan in 2/3 e of the network, the country's mining industry is under the control and control of western capital, primarily american and british, respectively. here we have both economic influence and political, and uh, direct influence and pressure. blackmail from the outside, and british intelligence directly ruling kazakhstan, it is aimed at tearing kazakhstan off as an important puzzle of the structure that is now being formed as part of the greater eurasia project to destroy, uh, the geo-strategic bridge. and between russia and china, in order to create an additional focus of tension on the southern borders of the russian federation on the western borders of the people's republic of china, in order to

create a zone of chaos, uh, constantly chuck of interethnic conflicts and so on, one should not assume that all these actions go unnoticed in the process of actively whales are involved. iran of course, turkey workflow between russia and kazakhstan goes on continuously at all levels. this is really real work in all important areas. we will not go into details to make a fuss. it's not in our interest right now. here, the official position of kazakhstan has never participated and will not participate in geopolitical games. at the heart of our policy. always lie the national interests of our country strengthening. ah, the welfare of our citizens. well, the development of the economy. we work exclusively on a parity basis with all ext. subjects and first of all, with the russian federation, which under any circumstances remains a close neighbor and strategic partner for us, we do not join the sanctions pressure on the

russian federation and do not take steps that infringe on any interests of russia and could be contrary to the spirit of our partnership comical plot in petropavlovsk north-kazakhstan state university authorities are going to hand over for 10 years. you trust the arizona state university controversial decision, and would have gone unnoticed. if not for public attention, parents sounded the alarm at the university of arizona actively promoting tolerance and gender change. here they are proud that 20% of the students of this university consider themselves to be sexual minorities. the indignation was so strong that even the local akim , the head of the north kazakhstan region, had to join. the statement that one should not worry is by agreement with the americans of the educational part. they will not touch on the respectful attitude of americans. everything is understandable when they once again hang

a huge lgbt canvas on the building of their embassy right above the entrance to the central mosque of the capital of kazakhstan. and in contrast, the agreement on the opening of a branch of mephi e-e university named after al-farabi in alma-ata was signed this week no one to take this abstract under control, but a full-fledged branch based on the scientific research nuclear center of russia, the signing was timed to coincide with such a trip to the southern capital. here he honored the kazakh academy of sciences and communicated with schoolchildren. oh myself we change sails burunda nails me gein eat lermin and now in afghanistan, the vice-president of the country died with oleg said that they either intend to move the capital of the country from kabul to kandahar, what this will mean, both for afghanistan itself and for the entire region, we will discuss with high -ranking alexander knyazev. hello so what

does this step mean in general this question. it has arisen over the past decades more than once, given that when the gar was once the first capital of the afghan state. in the 19th century, like this initiative. it has a very symbolic character, primarily for the ethnic nationalist urges of the pushkin population. uh, there are quite a few representatives of this ideology in the leadership of the taliban movement and the taba movement in general. but i don’t think that this initiative, firstly, will be correctly implemented. eh, for one simple reason. uh, there are no funds for this, there are no funds for this, and most likely the same situation that exists now that the supreme leader of the movement will remain. it's either uh, stationed in kandahar, and government infrastructure governments are located in kabul afghanistan occupies an important place in bilateral relations. for example. e, tajikistan and uzbekistan, while tashkent and

dushanbe occupy somewhat different positions. whose in your opinion, in the fissom of love, uzbekistan has a greater political weight in the system of regional relations and in relations with the major lower powers than tajikistan well, simply because of its scale. e population volumes of the economy. that's enough to be credited. uh, the skillful diplomacy of tashkent, at the same time, uh, uzbekistan takes a fairly constructive position in relation to afghanistan. and considering, uh, the ongoing reversal. let's say hmm our russian foreign policy from west to east, declared in this regard, uzbekistan u, whose position on afghanistan coincides very closely with russia, is for us such a more reliable partner, say, on the afghan issue in the region than, tajikistan and to other news

action-packed video from the environs of nursultan kamaz, the driver of which violated traffic rules, tried to get away from the police chase in the process, the truck took a ram, a patrol car. so much so that he flew off the road into the field. and even on this, the violent character did not calm down, he also decided to start a fight with the policemen who came to the rescue, and it all ended with the arrest of the state for uzbek migrants, it will become easier for uzbek migrants to come to work in russia, the branch of the sakharov migration center that opened in tashkent will help, that is, now it will be possible to get a job even before moving. all this within a joint project on employment, 10,000 citizens of uzbekistan in the settings and in the agricultural industry of tashkent, representatives of the largest marketplaces in russia from ozone to yandex.market arrived. they familiarized themselves with the products of the local textile and clothing knitting industry and already preliminarily. we agreed with manufacturers on the supply of ready-made clothes from uzbekistan to the

russian market. the whole world is beginning to feel the global food crisis and central asia is no exception, food prices are rising in some positions, at least the threat of shortages, at the same time, speculators inflate prices, so the island of sugar has become an issue in kazakhstan, the government has set the official average price of 450 tenge per kilo. however, according to leading monitoring agencies, the real retail price, depending on the region, reaches much higher values. t daily, the real level of annual production is estimated at about 230,000 tons. the level of consumption is twice as high as the main exporters. russia brazil belarus and mexico how it is now we learn the situation from aizhan ryzgaliyeva, president of the association of the food processing sugar industry of kazakhstan. hello what is

actually happening? well, uh, with regards to empty shelves in stores , maybe, well, i've said it many times before. perhaps this is related to say. so that interest is fueled by the media and posting all these different videos there photos and so on. in principle, sugar factories are working and the volume of sugar that it does not produce goes to the region and, uh, gets safely. perhaps this information about the lack of sugar was related to what is. we have so-called social stores where sugar is sold at a social price, but not such a large large amount of sugar comes there, it is limited. what caused the hype of sugar, there really is not enough. are there quotas provided for, for example, within the eu, right?

probably, within the euroza, there are quotas, but, well here it is necessary to make such a reservation that, uh, well, it’s not a secret for you and for us that the russian federation imposed a ban on the export of sugar until august 31, and unfortunately, our factories, probably, were not quite ready for such situations. but in principle, the volumes that were at the time of the market close. they were enough to cover their market. currently. three kazakh factories are operating and, in principle, they will provide the market with their own sugar for the summer periods. unfortunately, we have such uh, resellers, who, god, are kind of speculating on the current situation and, uh, offering sugar at a much higher price. that's it. actually in the regions,

but track. uh, who is this and who is behind this, mm, let's say, it's difficult for us as an association. and for us, uh, the primary task is still providing. eh, the population of sugar is curious that now in kazakhstan they are studying with great interest the recipes of ancient kazakh dishes, and there is an opinion that it was the nomadic culture that formed what we call today healthy eating kazakh cuisine. it combines three main areas. this is the use of meat products, dairy and grain. this is a combination of three main ingredients. meat is milk and grains and in many e dishes in many recipes. eh, this is the right combination of sour milk. with products over and over cereals it makes hmm a recipe for many dishes that really do. and if, for example, meat is marinated in koumiss, then after such a marinade

, for example, trans isomeric trans fats, isomeric fats, these fats that refuse to us in the body. that is, these are cooking methods, and cooking technologies, and natural ones, this is it. uh, the natural drying of the park, and drying and smoking is really the basis of uh, the nomadic civilization of the nomadic culture that gave the task. eh, these are the basis for modern kazan cuisine, that's all. may there always be abundance on your dastarkhan, see you in a week in the center of asia. take care of yourself. red era

i wanted to deceive fate with you, you can’t deceive fate . you are one great country people. history of russia free
