Nursultan Nazarbayev proposed to nominate Kasym-Jomarta Tokayev as a candidate for the presidency of the party “Nur Otan”
“Having known Tokayev for many years, I consider him the most worthy candidate today for this highest position in the country”
“He is one of those who began to build the country’s foreign policy together with me, heading the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan for many years. He supported my idea of forming a National Fund”
“Tokayev, as the speaker of the Senate, made a great contribution to the development of legislative work. He is a worthy citizen, he is one mushel zhas younger than me.”
He has been my faithful companion all these years and supported all my endeavors and initiatives. I believe him.
“Dear fellow party members, these days I am receiving many letters from our citizens, for whom my decision to leave the presidency was unexpected.”
“Kazakhstanis are asking me to go to the polls. I understand the rationale. People want stability. I am grateful for the kind attitude towards me. I want to take this opportunity to thank the Kazakhs for their love and faith in me.”
I am sure that Tokayev is the person who will follow the policy of friendship and equal rights for all Kazakhstanis. I urge all compatriots to support his candidacy,” Elbasy noted.
