Kazakhstan is known to produce a wide range of military equipment, including boats, armored and artillery vehicles, machine guns, night visors, grenades, torpedoes and protective equipment.
In this regard, Radio Liberty wrote that President Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev recently expressed concern that Kazakh weapons could enter military conflicts in the region against the backdrop of Russia’s war against Ukraine.
It is noted that the leadership of Kazakhstan, which has close economic ties with Russia, is trying to find a balance between Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and China for fear that Moscow’s geopolitical ambitions could spread far beyond Ukraine.
Earlier, Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned Ukraine’s Ambassador to the country, Petro Vrublevsky, to protest his remarks about the Russians.
