The US special envoy announced his intentions to increase the potential in Kazakhstan in connection with the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan

50

The United States announced that it was going to consider "strengthening its potential in the countries of Central Asia" in connection with the withdrawal of its troops from Afghanistan. Earlier, the Pentagon heard statements that part of the American contingent from Afghanistan could be withdrawn to the Central Asian republics, for example, to Uzbekistan. Tashkent made it clear that the US military was not expected in the country.

Now the United States began to talk about its readiness to "increase the potential in Kazakhstan." This statement was made by US diplomat Zalmay Khalilzad, special envoy for Afghanistan (the official title of the position is US special envoy for Afghan reconciliation).



Khalilzad made it clear that the United States views Kazakhstan as a country in which, after the withdrawal from Afghanistan, one or another part of the American military contingent could be deployed. This is what, according to the American diplomat, would allow "to increase the potential in terms of security."

Mr. Khalilzad made his statement after a question about whether negotiations are underway with the authorities of the Central Asian republics on the possibility of deploying an American contingent on their territory.

The American diplomat said that negotiations "with individual representatives" are under way.

Zalmay Khalilzad, while in Kazakhstan:

It is too early to announce something unambiguously, but I want to say that negotiations are underway, they are continuing. We are determined to help the Central Asian countries improve their security and be able to defend our own interests.

According to Khalilzad, he "would like" to meet with the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.

Officially, Kazakhstan did not comment on the statements of the American diplomat.

Earlier, Khalilzad met with representatives of the Uzbek authorities.

    Yeah, they pocketed Kazakh bucks, now they want to force military bases in Kazakhstan for this money, we shit from the back! You need to drive them out of the region! With the appearance of a military base in Kazakhstan, partisans, well-armed, and prepared for the constant shooting of warriors from the US occupation army, should urgently appear there!

      Something is wrong in our foreign policy ...

      Putin "matured" only seven years later to report on "red lines" in Ukraine, and how long will it take for him to realize that the United States is brazenly and unceremoniously pushing in other regions of the former Soviet space that are extremely sensitive for us?

          American diplomat Zalmay Khalilzad, special envoy for Afghanistan (the official title of the position is US special envoy for Afghan reconciliation), while in Kazakhstan:
          We are determined to help the Central Asian countries improve their security and be able to defend our own interests.

          "Increase the level of security" of the Central Asian countries from the lips of the US diploma should be quoted, i.e. understood in the opposite sense. But "to be able to" protect our own interests, "that is, PROTECT US interests globally, from the mouth of a US diplomat must be understood literally! For the national interests of the United States are in Washington's first place all over the world !!!

          All this in the words of a US diplomat reflects in the US / Pentagon policy the COORDINATED military tactics of the offensive of Washington's TOAD SHAASHKOV on other countries with the help of the so-called. "soft power" in diplomacy. Namely.

          The USA / Pentagon has never withdrawn its troops from where they came from, but only pretended to withdraw. And after all, where to withdraw, if at the same time the general reductions of the US Armed Forces are not made by Washington, but only increased?
          therefore Washington / Pentagon simply under the plausible pretext of the alleged withdrawal of the US Armed Forces from some countries is simply "toad swords" shoving its troops into neighboring countries, and then in the country of their withdrawal they increase their former numbers again and again.
          As a result, the number of US military bases around the world is only growing.

            Uzbekistan and Tajikistan have refused to shelter American troops withdrawn from Afghanistan and become bases for air strikes against Afghanistan. Now the Americans are casting a bait in Kazakhstan. Oh well. Let's see how much Tokayev and like-minded people are mercantile / NOT corrupt.

Incomprehensible body movements and from whom they will increase the "potential" in the Republic of Kazakhstan. If memory serves, it is part of the CSTO (the CSTO includes six states - Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan.)

          MOSCOW, December 4 - RIA Novosti. Vladimir Putin has appointed the ex-head of Rusnano Anatoly Chubais - “ Special Presidential Representative for Relations with International Organizations to Achieve Sustainable Development Goals »

          I will add on my own that such a position did not exist before, and it was created specifically for Chubais.
          This, of course, can be interpreted as compensation or, "compensation" for the displacement of the redhead from the post of head of "Rusnano", as an "honorary pension" (just what honor?) but at the same time he is involved in the activities of our Foreign Ministry, and therefore it is possible that he will not be able to influence the processes in our foreign policy.

      For them, Kazakhstan is a rather advantageous position for the deployment of military bases, since they put pressure not only on us, but also on China. From Kazakhstan it is better for them to support the Uighurs. So, preventing the appearance of American in Kazakhstan is not only our task, but also China's.

          Because respected and not very Kazakhstani participants of the forum again left somewhere for a long time, I will note that the Americans can ask anyone for anything, find and arrest regular personal accounts, but consent to the open deployment of the American military, as I understand, is not yet present. And the fact that Kazakhstan is pursuing an anti-Russian foreign and domestic policy is the Punchinelle's secret.

    The Americans rush with their contingent like a written sack - they don't know where to attach it. And even none of their generals come up with the idea - just to return them home. So great is the desire to turn around somewhere in a foreign land. Apparently, they do not like their homeland at all.
