Among Armenian nationalists, after Turkey, Azerbaijan and Georgia, Kazakhstan is becoming increasingly "disliked". Everyone remembers Tigran Keosayan's provocative and humiliating words about this country for the Kazakhs and his wife Margarita Simonyan's actual calls for interference in Kazakhstan's internal affairs.

And here is another "political scientist" and propagandist of Armenian nationality who distinguished himself with anti-Kazakh statements - Gevorg Mirzoyan. "Political scientist" in live on-air talk show "Mesto Vstrechi" on NTV channel carried absolutely provocative nonsense about allegedly possible "Ukrainian strike" against Russia from Kazakhstan (which indicates a high probability of a conscious provocation). The "political scientist" directly called for "nailing the Kazakhs for their position" (i.e. essentially for aggression against Kazakhstan on the model of Russia's current aggression against Ukraine):

"Ukraine will certainly have the opportunity to strike deep into the Russian Federation, but the irony is that any such strikes, even if the fantasy comes true and those strikes come from Northern Kazakhstan, it will play to Russia's advantage. If it will be from Northern Kazakhstan, we will finally nail Kazakhs for their position," Mirzayan said.

What is the most interesting is that provocative statement of Gevorg Mirzayan sounded on a background of diplomatic scandal, which broke out after Russian ambassador to Kazakhstan Alexey Borodavkin also provocatively and not at all diplomatically spoke about alleged "Russophobia and nationalism" in Kazakhstan. Clearly alluding to a repetition of aggression against this country with the aim of "denazification", similar to the aggression against Ukraine.

In particular, Alexey Borodavkin, in an interview with the propaganda resource Sputnik (which, like all near-Kremlin propaganda, is overseen by the same Margarita Simonyan) stated that there is a manifestation of "radical nationalist tendencies" in Kazakhstan.

"The Internet is filled with videos in which radical nationalists make completely unacceptable demands, slogans and so on. Moreover, these slogans are Russophobic," the Russian ambassador to Kazakhstan said. The Russian diplomat also said that the Russian Federation is ready to "assist" Kazakhstan in "suppressing any kind of extremist nationalist rhetoric.

Ukraine serves as an example of how such "assistance" can be provided. And Alexey Borodavkin made such analogy too, saying that the West is allegedly trying to turn Kazakhstan into "Anti-Russia" the way it did it with Anti-Russia in Ukraine. That is, in diplomatic parlance, nothing more than a threat of a possible invasion if Kazakhstan does not capitulate to the Kremlin's demands.

Naturally, Borodavkin would not make such statements himself. His superior, we recall, is a fellow countryman of Gevorg Mirzayan - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov-Kalantarov, who, trying to "extinguish" the scandal that erupted after the statement of the Russian ambassador to Kazakhstan, unwittingly gave a hint as to in whose interests such statements are made.

After a Kazakh journalist asked Lavrov about the Russian ambassador's words about extremism and Russophobia in Kazakhstan, whether they reflected the official position of the Russian Foreign Ministry, he replied with the seemingly strange phrase that it "not only does not reflect our department's official position, but also that of Ambassador Aleksey Nikolayevich Borodavkin".

In other words, we get a kind of surrealism - a threatening and not at all diplomatic statement is made by the ambassador, and the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry says that the statement reflects neither the position of the ambassador himself, nor that of the Russian Foreign Ministry. But the statement was made! Then whose position does it reflect?

If we consider that all too often provocative statements against Kazakhstan are directly or indirectly associated with figures with Armenian surnames or origins, then we are left to conclude that such statements reflect the position of the Armenian lobby. Which for some reason became "indifferent" to Kazakhstan.

Actually, the fact that Kazakhs are Turks by itself initially makes them, as well as other Turkic nations, dislike Armenian nationalists, obsessed with Turkophobia. But that is probably not the only issue.

Armenian provocateurs work for western "masters" who hold Armenian project and use it to geopolitically reformat Eurasia. In essence, using the Armenian people, drugged by nationalism and "megalomania", as a tool.

Over a century ago, this tool was used to destroy the Ottoman Empire. Now it is being used to manage tensions along the "New Silk Road" on the rapidly emerging trans-Eurasian transit routes, in which it is Kazakhstan's role that is becoming pivotal.

 Naturally, there are plans to use Russia "darkly" through the Armenian lobby once again, taking advantage of its enormous influence on the Kremlin and the Kremlin leadership's thirst for "at least some victories". And Kavkaz Plus has already written about plans to organise a "small victorious war" against Georgia and Kazakhstan to at least compensate for defeats in Ukraine. As statements of "political scientists" such as Gevorg Mirzayan show this threat has not diminished at all.
