The pogromists in Almaty did not touch the Russians
About 2-3 thousand people who participated in the pogroms in Almaty (out of 20 thousand) are foreign citizens. They entered Kazakhstan in advance and were trained in special camps in mountainous regions.
Former adviser to Nazarbayev Ermukhamet Ertysbaev stated this in an interview with the Vesti FM radio station, a PolitNavigatra correspondent reports.
“The introduction of CSTO troops is of enormous importance. If this had not happened, another week and a half, and another 40 thousand militants. They are watching very carefully - the Taliban, ISIS, and other organizations. Why Almaty? Why not Northern and Central Kazakhstan? They won't go there because there are a lot of Russians there.
By the way, there was such an episode. The owner of the weapons store is a Slav. He says: they burst in, looked at him and did nothing. That is, they are ideologically very well instructed: under no circumstances should they touch persons of Slavic nationality,” Yertysbaev said.
Also, according to him, the pogroms did not affect the western regions, because enterprises with a large share of Western investment are concentrated there.
