ArmInfo.In the incident that occurred in Kazakhstan, there is no political connotation, it is just an ordinary New Year's fight, in which the Armenians participated. The director of the Caucasus Institute, Alexander Iskandaryan, stated this at a press conference on January 11.
He noted that representatives of very many nationalities live in Kazakhstan, Kazakhs make up about two thirds of the population, and, as a result, there are many national minorities in the country. "It wasn't that in Kazakhstan there is a bias towards Armenians, no, that is not so. However, there is a special attitude towards Caucasians, "the expert stressed.
With regard to the reaction to this incident by the government of the republics, as well as publications in the media, the political analyst said that the reaction of representatives of the Azerbaijani press was very predictable. "The media of Azerbaijan always, in one way or another, react to events that, in one way or another, are connected with the Armenians. Therefore, it would be very strange if this time they did not respond to the incident," Iskandaryan said. He also noted that the reaction of the Kazakh government to the incident was almost perfect. "The authorities of Kazakhstan reacted very adequately. All statements were very restrained and calm, besides, Astana also urged not to politicize this incident," the expert emphasized.
He also stated that the Armenian government also responds to everything more than adequately, given the fact that the guy accused of the murder is a citizen of Armenia. "From our side everything was done. A telephone conversation took place between the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Kazakhstan. Moreover, the Armenian Ambassador to Kazakhstan is very active," the political scientist said. Iskandaryan also noted that whether Narek Guryan is guilty of murder or not will be shown by the investigation, which, according to the expert, will also be very objective.
"Be that as it may, you should not give this incident political or inter-ethnic overtones, in fact it was just another fight that often happens on New Year's," the director of the Caucasus Institute concluded.
To note, on the night of January 1 in the restaurant "Ancient Rome" in the city of Karaganda there was a fight. As a result of the incident, a 23-year-old resident of Karaganda was killed three more were injured. The deadly brawl in Kazakhstan has become a fertile ground for inciting ethnic hatred and the spread of misinformation. Three Armenians were involved in it. Armenian citizen Narek Guryan, who was suspected of committing hooliganism and murder in Karaganda on the night of January 1, was detained on January 9.
