BEIJING (TASS): China is firmly opposed to external forces creating unrest and inciting a color revolution in Kazakhstan, as well as against any forces that undermine the stability and peaceful life of the population of this country. This was stated on Friday by the President of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping in his message to the President of Kazakhstan Tokayev.
“China resolutely opposes any forces that undermine stability and threaten the security of Kazakhstan, resolutely against any forces that undermine the peaceful life of the people of Kazakhstan,” the text of the message is quoted by the Central Television of China.
“China resolutely opposes external forces that deliberately create instability in Kazakhstan and incite a color revolution,” the PRC chairman said.
In his message, Xi Jinping noted that the PRC strongly opposes any attempts to undermine the Sino-Kazakh friendship and interfere with cooperation between the two countries. He also pointed out that “being a brotherly neighbor and an unchanging strategic partner, China is ready to do everything possible to provide the necessary support to Kazakhstan and help it cope with difficulties.”
Mass protests in Kazakhstan began in the early days of 2022. Then the inhabitants of the cities of Zhanaozen and Aktau in the west of the country opposed a twofold increase in prices for liquefied gas. Then the protests spread to other cities, including Alma-Ata , the old capital and the largest city of the republic: looting began there, militants attacked state institutions, took aw-ay weapons. In response, the authorities declared a state of emergency across the country until January 19.
