The state Guard will not be responsible for the security of Nazarbayev

The rationale for the amendments is the repeal of the Constitutional Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On the First President of the Republic of Kazakhstan - Elbasy". The State Security Service of the Republic of Kazakhstan has developed a draft decree On amendments to the Decree of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated May 4, 2014 No. 814 "On approval of the Regulations on the State Security Service of the Republic of Kazakhstan".
