Russia sees that setting peace is a necessity to maintain its interests in Kazakhstan. With the ongoing deadly violent protests, Russia fears of millions of refugees\u2019 displacement from Kazakhstan to Russia. Secondly, the religious diversity in Kazakhstan could trigger a civil war. The economic and strategic interests of Russia in Kazakhstan are highly valuable and critical, and include the location of Russia\u2019s space program. Kazakhstan accordingly concerns Russia, so Russia has sent the first wave of 3000 soldiers. Russia will send more troops into Kazakhstan if needed, even if the further deployment of Russian troops would affect the Russian voice towards Ukraine and Belarus. Russia considers the situation in Kazakhstan as successfully traced back to the US, considering the timing of Ukrainian and Belarusian files. Russia details how the US has been supporting and funding \u201cpro-democracy\u201d NGOs to fuel protests against Russia\u2019s allied governments in the three countries. By that, Russia believes that a hybrid-war is to be fought.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>By: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Noah Mezgan, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CIGA Research Associate<\/span><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: \u201cTyler Durden\u201d (Pseudonym for Daniel Ivandjiiski, and Tim Backshall) Affiliation: Former Hedge-fund Trader, Credit Derivatives Strategist&nbsp;
