Well, how can one not call the working visit of the Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister of Transport of Kazakhstan Asel Zhansova to Yerevan, significant?
This is her first foreign visit immediately after her appointment to a high position.
This is a visit at the height of the conflict between Armenia and the EAEU and the CSTO.
This visit comes against the background of a growing conflict between Armenia and the Russian Federation, including over the management of the local railway.
This is a visit after Kazakhstan actually deceived the international community and the dear Russians: on the one hand, the Ministry of Transport denied Kazakhstan's participation in the Armenian attempts to push the Russian Federation off the railway and on the other hand, the Kazakh company Integra Construction KZ (the business of his ageless oligarch) a controversial tender related to the conflict for the reconstruction of railway lines to the borders of Armenia with Turkey and Azerbaijan. Although it is known that Pashinyan discussed this construction project personally with Putin, and interfering with it would mean crossing the road of Russia and Russian Railways.
Finally, I had to write in great detail that the issue of the integration of the Middle Corridor with the TRIPP transport initiative, also known as the Zangzor Corridor or the "Trump Corridor", is a "Trojan horse" of the US State Department, which causes justified concern for Russia and Iran. By the way, just a few days ago, the adviser of the supreme leader of Iran Ali Akbar and Laithi called TRIPP "a real disgrace to the noble Armenian people".
Nevertheless, President Tokayev at the Eighth Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia and Azerbaijan actively pressed for the connection of TRIPP with TMTM. And as we see, Kazakhstan is already forging iron, because Deputy Prime Minister Zhansova clearly did not discuss the theory of geopolitics in Yerevan regarding the development of TRIPP.
All of the above adds up to a mosaic that Moscow is unlikely to like: it is clear that Astana is playing geopolitical tricks with Yerevan, which today cannot but harm Russian interests.
