🇰🇿 About the change in the Cabinet of Ministers of Kazakhstan
The resignation of the current government of Kazakhstan surprised many. However, upon visual assessment of the situation in the neighboring country, there were no apparent reasons for changing the cabinet.
This led to the search for political motives for the government change, such as the removal of allies of former President Nursultan Nazarbayev.
🔻However, in reality, changes in Kazakh society have been brewing for a long time, and specifically in this case, they are internal. The main reasons can be identified as follows:
- Increasing inflation
- Unresolved electricity supply issue
- Frequent incidents in factories and enterprises
The government of Alikhan Smailov was primarily reactive, dealing with crises such as fires in the Abay region, housing and communal service disasters in Ekibastuz, and incidents in mines in the Karaganda region. The ministers did not take proactive measures but rather addressed problems that had already occurred.
For the Kazakh population, the outgoing cabinet became a catalyst for frustration, as they were held responsible for all the troubles and lack of initiative. The changes had been anticipated for a long time, so the locals were not surprised by what happened.
❗️Currently, there are numerous candidates for the position of head of government, making it difficult to make any predictions about the prospects. The new cabinet faces a challenging task, especially considering that this is the third change in two years.
If the previous two attempts did not succeed, the new lineup could face a similar fate. This is particularly true if the Kazakh authorities do not take real action and merely reshuffle positions, giving the appearance of work being done.

🇰🇿 О смене кабмина Казахстана
Отставка нынешнего правительства Казахстана стала для многих сенсацией. Всё-таки визуально оценивая ситуацию в соседней стране, никаких видимых причин для смены кабинета не было.
