Kazakhstan’s Foreign Ministry is puzzled at the Ukraine’s diplomatic note sent to Kazakhstan, the country’s Foreign Minister Zhanbolat Ussenov said.
Kazakhstan’s Foreign Ministry is puzzled at the Ukraine’s diplomatic note sent to Kazakhstan, the country’s Foreign Minister Zhanbolat Ussenov said.
“Obviously, sending the diplomatic note was driven by overt emotions, rather than common sense”, the Minister told a briefing.
He emphasized that Kazakhstan holds a balanced and realistic position on the Ukrainian crisis, adding that the country’s President Nursultan Nazarbayev had repeatedly called, including at the global nuclear security summit at the Hague, to exit the Ukrainian crisis through peaceful negotiations.
“We don’t see any reasons for Ukraine to be displeased with the statements”, he said, adding that Ukraine’s temporary charge d'affaires in Kazakhstan would be once again invited to the Foreign Ministry to be offered explanations of the Kazakhstan’s official stance on the Ukrainian crisis. He also stated Kazakhstan had no intentions of answering in written.
Earlier the country’s media reported that Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry had sent a diplomatic note to Kazakhstan, expressing concerns over the statements made by President Nazarbayev at the global nuclear security summit at the Hague. The Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry believes the statements of the Kazakh president contradicted the fundamental norms of the international law, do not comply with partnership ties between the two nations, and are unacceptable for Ukraine.
March 25 at the Hague President Nazarbayev told a briefing that “Today’s task for Ukraine is to get back to the legal and legitimate field, which means holding elections. The nation should elect a legitimate president, legitimate parliament and government. Then there should be peaceful talks on how to exit the situation”.
