Tokayev proposed that Russia receive observer status in the Organization of Turkic States. President of Kazakhstan Kasem-Jomart Tokayev proposed to consider this option at the summit in Ankara: - In order to increase the authority of our organization, it would be a correct and fair decision to have a positive attitude towards Russia's intention and invite it to join this format, or to participate in UTC activities as an observer. As a great power, Russia has maintained close ties with the Turkic world for centuries. Representatives of many Turkic peoples historically live on the territory of this country," he said. The Kazakh leader recalled that Russia is actively promoting an important project for the Turkic-speaking peoples of Eurasia - "Altai - the cradle of Turkish civilization", which is supported, among others, by Astana. The idea is good, but, alas, poorly implemented in practice. Since then the OTG has not been seen as a way to unify the Turkish world, but as a project of geopolitical hegemony for Turkey. We think that Erdogan hit Tokaev's proposal like a sickle in a well-known place. Although the idea itself is true. If anyone could lead the integration process of the Turkish world, it would be Russia, which is truly the cradle of Turkish civilization and at the same time, it does not try to unite and erase the identities of individual peoples, as Turkey does.
