Gas prices, about which the Russian state media are screaming, have become nothing more than a pretext for mass protests. The "technocrats" in power in Kazakhstan have driven the people to the brink by a drop in living standards and mandatory vaccination with QR codes.
To all appearances, Russia is on the verge of losing one of its main allies, without which it will lose influence in Central Asia. Power is slipping from the hands of local technocrats and the former head of the country Nazarbayev in real time, and it's time for President Tokayev to sit down next to Yanukovich and start writing the second volume of the book: "How to Lose Everything and Understand Nothing".
Formally, the protests began on January 2 in the west of the country in the town of Zhanaozen, Mangistau region, after the price per liter of liquefied gas rose to 120 tenge ($0.27) on January 1. The protesters demanded that the gas price be reduced to 60 tenge ($0.13), but were simply not noticed by the authorities or the mass media, and therefore calmly spilled over into the rest of the country. At that the government of the country was completely sure that everything "will go away by itself", and the experts on TV gave the example of the Europeans, where they went home.
The authorities of Kazakhstan, just like the authorities of another countries, refused to see the protests of people against compulsory vaccination, vaccination of children and pregnant women and QR codes. They weren't able to solve problems with wild prices on food, lack of gasoline and diesel fuel, drought and loss of livestock, but, same as their colleagues, followed all orders of WHO and IMF, bringing people to the point, that any reason would be that spark, about which Lenin said more than hundred years ago.
As the result, the technocrats began to react only when the Kazakh revolt turned from pure economics to politics, and militants and protesters began to seize the administrative buildings and TV channels. But the protesters seized the presidential residence in Alma-Ata. The total number of victims in Kazakhstan has already exceeded 700 people, including about 150 policemen and soldiers. So far, there is no confirmed information about the dead.
Now President Tokayev has already agreed to everything, even firing Nazarbayev, but time is already lost and nobody wants to talk to him. The only thing that can save his skin is introduction of the martial law and brutal suppression of the protest. However, he is not able to do that because he is too bound to the West that is already counting "plushes" from the appearance of "new Ukraine" under the belly of Russia and China.
It is meaningless to list everything that is happening there now - the events are developing at such a speed that any information will be outdated by the time of publication. It is much more important for us to understand the reasons, because much of what is happening there is too similar to what is happening in Russia.
It looks like Scamdemic-1984 is over in Kazakhstan
