Putin's 2013 comments on Kazakh statehood
"In 2013, President Vladimir Putin raised controversy when he claimed that “Kazakhs had never had statehood”, in what seemed to be an apparent response to growing nationalism among Kazakhstanis. Putin's remarks on the matter led to a severe response from President Nazarbayev, who announced that the country would celebrate the 550th anniversary of the Kazakh Khanate, which effectively refutes Putin's claim that a Kazakh nation has never existed. He also threatened to withdraw from the Eurasian Economic Union, saying that the independence of the country is his "most precious treasure" and that Kazakhs "will never surrender" their independence."

"Quite aware that Ankara seeks to increase its presence in Central Asia – a region that has traditionally been in Moscow’s geopolitical orbit – Russia aims to preserve its influence in countries such as Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. It is, therefore, not surprising that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s first trip abroad since the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for him on March 17 over alleged crimes amid the invasion of Ukraine, was to Bishkek where he attended the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) summit on October 13.
"Four weeks later, the Russian leader flew to Kazakhstan, where he met with President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. Prior to the meeting in Astana on November 9, Tokayev stressed the importance of the Russian language as a “unifying factor in the CIS space.” He also emphasized that negotiations are underway on the creation of joint Kazakh-Russian educational organizations in the southern regions of Kazakhstan. It was a symbolic message that the authorities in Astana do not plan to implement a Ukraine-style derussification of the country, since such a move could have severe consequences for Kazakhstan’s relations with Moscow."

I believe that it is because of that perceived fragility, that the US retains its strength.
We can consider trees in the wind. If we stake a tree so tightly that it cannot move its branches, the tree breaks easily when the supporting stake is removed. The tree has not developed in a way to remain sturdy against the wind, but will break in a gentle breeze. It is only when the tree is loosely contained between two or more stakes, that it is allowed to move in the breeze and develop the internal strength of the tree, much like weight training of muscles in humans.
To my way of thinking, politics is similar. the governmental and political structure grows in strength by being tested between the vaarious conditions within which and against which it is pressed. As humans, I doubt that we will ever have a perfect political system. However, we can have strong political systems, tested from inside and from outside.
🇺🇦 Victory for Ukraine, Absolute Victory 🇺🇦
