Terrorism threat in Kazakhstan will eventually grow, US expert
ASTANA. October 11. KAZINFORM "Terrorism threat in Kazakhstan will eventually grow," Ariel Cohen, a Senior Research Fellow for Russian and Eurasian Studies and International Energy Policy, the Heritage Foundation, the US, told the 10th Eurasian Media Forum started in Astana.
"The US leaves Afghanistan. Why? As all trends indicate, the current government of Afghanistan will not be able to fight with the Taliban push. In this case it may spread towards Central Asia, and unfortunately, destabilize the post-soviet republics in this region. The US government leaves the Middle East providing no support to powers in the region able to fight extremism. I think that my government makes a mistake letting thus develop the environment which allos to promote the toughest extremism," he addded.
