A Kazakh political scientist told a leading Moscow newspaper that events similar to the change of power in Ukraine and Georgia were unlikely to occur in his country, Interfax news agency reported.
"We have absolutely different conditions, which make a repeat of the Georgian or Ukrainian scenarios unlikely," Maulen Ashimbayev, director of the Strategic Studies Institute, said in an interview with Kazakhskaya Pravda published Friday.
"The groundwork for such scenarios does not exist in Kazakhstan. There is no social split and we are not facing acute conflicts or civil war. The country's economy has been expanding at a sound pace," he said.
