The situation is ordinary ... A purely news burden ... Of course, we should be happy for our CSTO partner. The only thing that is a little alarming is the somewhat wobbling to the side vector of our neighbor’s policy ...

They have nowhere to wag, so we need to help the Kazakhs with modernization so that the base fits our conditions, Kazakhstan is doing everything right.

There is much to wag them ... Well-wishers with a torch of freedom will fly in a swoop. And speaking of the wobbling Kazakh political vector, I had in mind the fuss of the Kazakh opposition regarding an attempt to hold a referendum on confidence in Nazarbayev and fortune-telling on a daisy regarding the translation of written language into Latin - we will translate, we will not translate ...

On that and the opposition that would slow down the government, otherwise they will be covered with bronze. The Kazakh language will be translated into the Latin language, to which you can hear the drum. You don’t own it, so what difference does it make to you in what font it will be written.

Hello, Valery! There is no opposition in Kazakhstan as such, especially when compared with Russia. There are media outlets controlled by people (or the poor) that have hit the road (here the prison is crying - cutting, financial fraud, corruption, economic crime, even killing). Even in the West, they have problems with the law. Here they are, with the help of controlled media, and stir up water. But the people do not support them, sitting in parliamentary elections. Our authorities had to drag them behind their skins to show our multi-party system. 2-3 seats in parliament.
Many in the CIS, and in Russia in particular, say that de Nazarbayev and ... Kazakhstan’s kirdyk will come. But in reality, there is already a receiver - someone is short-sighted, and Nazarbayev cannot be blamed. This is the former mayor of Almaty and the current mayor of Astana, Tasmagambetov. This is indicated by many signs and actions of our authorities (I think it is inappropriate to write about this here), and even by talk and rumor.
Countrymen, I think it’s better than the minuses to set, it’s better to explain to our friends and colleagues on the site what is happening in Kazakhstan. Especially esayly, who always treated our country well.
Sincerely.

There is always where to wag, there is no desire to wiggle consciously, and for the desire to help, it’s a big deal, God forbid that this base is not useful for its intended purpose, but only for exercises.

According to the latest census of Kazakhstanis, only about 17 million for comparison, the population of Moscow is about 12 million, with China nearby, plus the availability of raw materials ........
There is only one real allies, even historically, - Russia. The situation can only be shaken by "sent Cossacks" from Washington, but Kazakhs are not stupid people ...
So the conclusion is one integration (subject to sovereignty) with Russia ....
Py Sy.
Kazakhstan withdrew from the USSR not of its own free will, but after the betrayal of Yeltsin, Yakovlev, Shushkevich. Kazakhs have been waiting for more than a year for the USSR to recover ...

[Kasym]

Good evening, Zigzag! In my opinion, you confused Yakovlev and Kravchyk.
Sincerely, Dayren!

[tronin.maxim]

Kazakhstan is restoring an airfield, hmm that's good. Even he understands that the world is not as calm as before.

[svp67]

The ministry explained that this measure is aimed at increasing the capabilities of the airfield, which will allow taking in aircraft with a large take-off mass.

I wonder which one? Which and whose planes are they preparing to receive?

I think, for example, military-technical cooperation purchased in Europe, I hope my planes, and allied planes, it would be good only for the purpose of exercises. and not as a result of any war.

[Kasym]

Sagat, hello! According to the military-technical cooperation, S-295 (USA) is being procured according to information from Bolot, 6 units will be delivered by the end of the year.
In Russia, military airfields and air units are being reformed, and we are being repaired, which of course cannot but rejoice.
I remember there was no day in Taldyk so that the MiG-21 and MiG-27 did not fly overhead. After the collapse of the USSR, the MiG-21s were mothballed there. They wrote that 200 pieces. Fuel tanks on them are rubber, which after 2 years become unusable. I don’t know what the fate of these canned MiGs is. Maybe someone in the subject? But the upgraded MiG-21s in India are still in service. After modernization, they reach the level of 4 generations. At the joint teachings of India-USA, they adequately opposed the 4th generation American cars. We would need such upgraded MiG-21s, at least to teach young pilots. Cheap and cheerful.

[Marek Rozny]

Mig-21 somewhere around 60 units. Canned. For us, they are by and large not of any practical interest. Too outdated aircraft.
Previously, there were more - sold to all sorts of North Koreans. They also tried to push the Yugoslavs.
Single aircraft of this type are transferred by the Moscow Region to the cities as monuments.
With the remaining MiG-21 will not do anything yet. If they do not find a buyer (and this is unlikely), then apparently they are rusting at the storage bases. And for training, we have enough aircraft and training and combat training.

[nickname 1 and 2]

M-yeah! good if good ...

[Genoezec.]

From the airfield 108 km to China, 235 to Kyrgyzstan. What is it for?

[Semurg]

Airfields, military bases, warehouses are being built and repairs are being carried out in the east of China, the west of the Caspian, the south, Central Asia-Afghanistan, the center is the rear base, in the north there. We do not expect threats if hotheads do not begin to demand accession sowing. regions to Russia, or as some here suggest to pull the thorn and put machine guns.

In the period 1996-2000 studied in Monino with a Kazakh major-staffer (they were taught there for gold). So, he constantly (apparently, at the direction of the military attache of the embassy) was looking for people who wanted to join the Kazakh army. It is Kazakh, and not Kazakhstan (national features). The reason is simple - the lack of professional pilots, technicians, staff and many others after the collapse of the USSR. The Russian people flees from there - what to do! Not sweet there, apparently, live! And there are not many who wish to work and serve the new Motherland! Especially when there is no education.
Although, one of my fellow soldiers moved. Got a colonel, an apartment in Alma-Ata. Not complaining yet. But he is Tatar by nationality!

[Mr. dobryi kot]

I don’t know how it was before, but I can judge the current situation of the Navy because I am an officer. After 10 years I studied the field in Zhukovka. After graduation I arrived in one of the units. So I can tell you with full confidence that there’s no SVO does not test engineers as pilots. Personnel officers are trained at the higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan, and if we compare the quality of graduates, then it is equal.

[Kazbek]

All the time they say wagging their tail where and when one chatter. That Turkey then NATO besides talking nothing, agreements on any are signed with Russia and our ally, as if we did not want this one RF.
