Members of the Congress of Compatriots asked for Russian citizenship for pro-Russian prisoner Ermek Taychibekov
During a meeting of the legal section of the 7th World Congress of Compatriots, the delegation of Russians from Kazakhstan asked to include in the organization’s resolution an appeal to the President of Russia, the Russian Foreign Ministry and human rights organizations to grant Russian citizenship to Russophile Ermek Taychibekov.
Representative of the delegation Pyotr Kolomets reported this to PolitNavigator.

According to the activist, he still does not know whether the appeal of the Russians of Kazakhstan regarding the political prisoner, Russophile Ermek Taychibekov, languishing in the dungeons of the Kazakh regime, was included in the final resolution of the 7th World Congress of Compatriots Living Abroad.
“Unfortunately, it is still not known whether this proposal was included in the final version of the resolution,” one of the authors of the appeal, Petr Kolomets, commented on the situation. “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs understandably does not need unnecessary headaches and troubles, but they also do not have to ignore the initiative from the localities.” rights. We wait".
According to the social activist, the corresponding appeal was signed by three participants in the legal section of the Congress - former citizens of Kazakhstan - himself, as well as A.I. Shevelev and A.V. Dokuchaeva.

"This morning, lawyer Galym Nurpeisov visited my brother in pretrial detention," Marlen, the brother of the convicted Russophile from Kazakhstan, told PolitNavigator. "Ermek will apparently be transferred to Pavlodar, where a second trial on new charges will begin.
Then the next step is a trial for insulting the honor and dignity of the leader of the nation - they will take him to Nursultan. My poor brother is being persecuted for daring to speak publicly in defense of the rights of Russian people in Kazakhstan! The problem is the inaction of official Russia. Now a scenario based on Ukrainian patterns is being implemented in Kazakhstan.”
Marlen Taychibekov seriously fears that unbearable conditions will be specially created for his brother in the colony.
“When my brother arrives at the prison camp and is placed in quarantine for two weeks, most likely, as during his first term, he will be methodically and harshly abused by the staff of the maximum security colony, I am simply one hundred percent sure of this.
My brother talked about the sadistic tendencies with which the employees work there. From 10 a.m. to 16 p.m. they are continuously beaten just like that - this is called familiarization with the rules of a maximum security colony.
I don’t want to live after something like this, and my brother asked them only for one thing, that they should not be tortured, but simply killed. But I'm afraid that he might be beaten to death to finish him off once and for all. This political impotence infuriates me!
Ermek’s support group sent a huge number of letters to various authorities and parties in Russia, and in response we hear: “We can’t. Not within our control. Let's report. We'll let you know."
What is the essence of the Eurasian Union? If Russia merges its brother, then many sympathizers of the Russian World will turn away from Russia,” says Marlen Taychibekov.
