“In the West, including, there are a lot of positive responses and reviews about this operation ... Yesterday I spoke online with the Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations, who also positively assessed our actions,” Zas said in an interview with the ONT television channel.

According to him, "negative assessments are also present, but this is a politicized point of view."

“It is hard to deny that all these actions benefited, first of all, Kazakhstan in ensuring the security of people and the security of the state,” the Secretary General added.

President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said earlier that the stay of the CSTO peacekeeping contingent in the republic was short-term, but effective.

By now, all peacekeepers, military equipment and weapons of the CSTO, who performed tasks in Kazakhstan, have returned to Russia.
