background
At the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said, that his country will not recognize the so-called “L/DNR”.
“It is estimated that if the nation’s right to self-determination is realized throughout the world, then instead of the 193 states that are now members of the UN, there will be more than 500 or 600 states on Earth. Of course, it will be chaos. For this reason, we do not recognize Taiwan , neither Kosovo, nor South Ossetia, nor Abkhazia. Apparently, this principle will also be applied to quasi-state territories, which, in our opinion, are Luhansk and Donetsk. This is a frank answer to your frank question, “said the President of Kazakhstan Kassym – Zhomart Tokaev.
