CSTO countries continue to transfer troops and materiel from the peacekeeping mission to Kazakhstan.
Peacekeepers are involved in the protection of important state and military installations. In addition, they are helping law enforcement agencies in Kazakhstan stabilize the situation. Military from Belarus, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Armenia will also be sent to the country.
Protests began across the country on January 2. They then degenerated into riots. President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev has promised to bring all bandits and terrorists to criminal responsibility.
