I think it's so cute that some of us think we can advise Nazarbayev on

Sir why this assumption that everyone here is "western"? I'm situated
at an even more eastern longitude than Kazakhstan.
It hardly matters. As the intent here is to comment on Nazarbayev's
putative view of these discussions, it's quite likely he would write the
whole lot of us off as "Western technocrats" no matter what our longitudes.
