Why Biden must Keep a Close eye on Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is likely to be a major actor in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. The United States has made Kazakhstan an important strategic partner. As peace has returned to the country, Kazakh president Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has made major changes to the governing elite's power structures, causing questions and worries. Tokayev's selection as National Security Council chairman, succeeding the President Nursultan Nazarbayev, whose financial influence outraged demonstrators have attracted the most interest.

Three of the daughters and sons-in law were fired from state enterprises, and his nephew was also fired, while Karim Mastimov, who was the former intelligence head, has been arrested for being a treasoner. Many other Nazarbayev-affiliated top officials and business elite have lost their jobs, left overseas for extended vacations, or were forced to make large "donations" to the state.

Tokayev is an entrepreneur who has built relations with the West as well as with other countries. He has avoided angering Putin to maintain his popularity. Kazykhanov could upset the balance. Washington should be paying attention to the developments taking place in Kazakhstan. They foretell many power transition scenarios which could be either good or bad , as war rages in Ukraine.
