President of Kazakhstan achieves most successes in foreign policy
"Nazarbayev has achieved the greatest successes in foreign policy, he was able to maintain good relations with Russia, China and Western countries, successfully maneuvering between them," Fedorov, Research Fellow of Chatham House Royal Institute of International Affairs Russian and Eurasian Program, told Trend News via e-mail.
Recently, the Nur Otan Party also offered to give the status of president for life to the current head of state through parliament's appropriate adoption of a law on the leader of nation."Such a proposal has already been expressed repeatedly over the past few months. Nazarbayev himself has not expressed his attitude towards the possible lifetime presidency.
According to the expert, the stability in Kazakhstan is a personal service of the current head of state.
"I think that due to Nazarbayev, Kazakhstan could ensure stability, including in the first years of independence when the country's economic situation was dire, and at the same time to avoid political repression, and not to completely destroy the opposition," Fedorov said.
According to the expert, the political regime created by him in Kazakhstan is rather soft and relatively efficient.
"I in no way want to idealize Nursultan Nazarbayev, Fedorov said, - and at the same time, it is impossible not to admit that he [Nazarbaev] is an extremely intelligent, capable and experienced politician", Kazinform refers to Trend News.
