The member of the Council of the Republic noted that the country’s new Basic Law sets out the future directions along which Kazakhstan’s society will develop.
“The conditions for voting and access to polling stations should be as dignified as possible. We have noted the fulfillment of these aspects as well as the active participation of voters, both older generations and young people. This means that Kazakhstanis care about their future and the future of their country. And that is very valuable,” Natalya Pavlyuchenko said.
