Awkwardness ensued as Kazakhstan’s President Nursultan Nazarbaev toured a newly opened Carrefour supermarket in the country's biggest city, Almaty. Originally published at - www.rferl.org/media/video/kaza...
I'm sad about how people forget that it was him who made Kazakhstan a wealthy country, not going through the wild capitalist era in 90s. People remember if u take one pence from them but forget easily that it was him who feed u up and took care of your life for years.
Let me take a wild guess....water. Also he is the president of a country and doesn't know what his local produce is washed with? Sounds like he has more dementia than Biden.
Furthermore, we don't even know if those are real carrots! They could also be alien eggs, sex toys, or chocolate croissants in disguise, made to look like dirty carrots so that housewives can sneak them into the house, despite their husbands - and their president! - explicitly banning them from eating fattening foods! We really have no way of knowing with 100% certainty, and that also is a fact!
Rick Sanchez You're a moron. You think that Trump does his own shopping. They did the same thing with Bill Gates, and he had to guess prices of regular products. He knew a few, but a lot of his guesses were also wrong.
Kai Assauov | Dafuq do you expect? The prices are closer to French standards, and the products as well. Potatoes, whether dirty or not are considered normal, and clean potatoes usually do not have higher price than the rest. Kazakhstan is a country that values tradition and as he said, any good house wife will not mind having to peel or clean the "dirty" potatoes. He is not clueless. Actually he knows quite a lot. He is the one who initiated the EEU and other organizations to make life better.
Alejandro Yusuf Haha, yeah. Yakshemash! Why are they called dirty bananas, they look normal to me. Do you wash them with shampoo? The comedy just writes itself :D
Ye Erzhan | Kazakhstan has been closely tied to Russia since the early XIX century when the Russian Empire started expanding towards central Asia. It has been a part of Russia for around a century. After WW1 the empire was no more and Kazakhstan was incorporated into the newly formed Soviet Union. This time not as part of Russia, but as an autonomous republic. The Russian language has been an official language in Kazakhstan ever since the empire conquered the area. More than 95% of the population is speaking Russian, and Russian still keeps official status, and is preffered over Kazakh in government bussinesses, which is why in most of the videos of Kazakh or Kyrgiz officials speak Russian. Russia has had so much influence in the area, that Kazakh, Kyrgiz, Tajik which are Turkic languages, are still written in the Cyrilic script. Russian is taught in almost every school throughout Kazakhstan. These statistics will change over time, and Russian will become rare in maybe 200 years, if Kazakhstan remains an independent state.
@@sowhat249 казак тилин он жылда букил елге таратуга болады, тек саяси талпыныс болса, казирдин озинде 50 % халык казакша сойлейди, елдин 70% казак улты.
@@user-uw8wh3hb9f | Но в том-то и дело. Нет никаких усилий. Беларусь тоже. Последняя перепись зафиксировала более 80% этнических белорусов, но почти никто не говорит на родном языке. Хорошо, говорить по-русски выгодно, но я не могу поверить, что эти две национальности предпочитают иностранный язык своему родному.
