Dariga Nazarbayeva

Dariga Nazarbayeva is the daughter of the first president of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev. However, despite the position of her father, Dariga can boast of her own achievements: the woman has achieved a lot in the field of politics and social activities. Today she is a prominent politician, chairman of the Senate of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In addition to her organizational talent, Dariga is known for her love of vocal creativity. Nazarbayeva has a choreographed mezzo-soprano and often takes the stage.

Dariga Nazarbayeva was born on May 7, 1963 in the city of Temirtau (Karaganda region). From early childhood Dariga Nursultanovna grew up in special conditions for a child of that time. Dariga's father, Nursultan Abishevich, served as president of the Kazakh SSR, and then, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, became president of Kazakhstan. His reign turned out to be long: in 2015, the politician retained the presidency again, remaining for a fifth term.

Dariga Nazarbayeva's mother, Sara Alpysovna, is an engineer-economist by education. Later, the woman began to engage in charity projects. The Nazarbayev family has three children. Dariga's younger sisters, Dinara and Aliya, have achieved significant business success.

After graduating from school, Dariga Nursultanovna entered Moscow State University, choosing the Faculty of History. After studying for 2 years, the girl transferred to her native Kazakhstan and after another 2 years she graduated from the Kazakh State University named after Sergei Kirov. The scientific activity of the future politician did not stop there: she defended her scientific work for the degree of candidate of historical sciences, and then her doctoral dissertation in the specialty "political science".

In her youth, Dariga collaborated with the Bobek charitable foundation, which raised funds to help children. Soon, Nazarbayeva already held the position of vice president of this organization, where she worked until 1994.

Dariga devoted the next few years to work in the media: the daughter of Nursultan Nazarbayev headed the organization "Television and Radio of Kazakhstan", and was also the director of a news agency called "Khabar" (until 1998). Then, until 2001, she was a member of the management and board of directors of the same agency.

In 2004, a woman, who had previously only been interested in politics, decided to try her own hand and presented a candidacy for the election of deputies of parliament. Dariga Nursultanovna managed to take this post, and until 2007 she was a deputy of the Mazhilis from a political party called Asar.

In 2007, Dariga Nazarbayeva headed the public organization "Fund of the First President of the Republic of Kazakhstan". Several years later, in 2012, she was again elected as a deputy of the Mazhilis (as the lower house of parliament is called in Kazakhstan). In addition, the woman received the post of chairman of the committee responsible for the social and cultural development of Kazakhstan.

A year later, Nazarbayeva became the leader in the rating of the most influential women in Kazakhstan according to the Internet media Vlast.kz. At the same time, some phrases of the politician often caused heated debates in society. Dariga spoke ambiguously about the effectiveness of the ongoing reforms in education, called for educational work with adolescents in the moral and sexual sphere to conduct excursions to boarding schools for disabled children.

The career of a purposeful and strong-willed woman was steadily going uphill: already in 2014, Dariga Nursultanovna was elected deputy chairman of the majilis, as well as the leader of the Nur Otan faction. And a year later, in 2015, the politician took the post of Deputy Prime Minister of the country.

Over the years of political and public work, Dariga Nazarbayeva was awarded various orders and medals of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

In November 2017, a photo of the woman again appeared on the front pages of news publications: she was elected chairman of the council in the field of activities of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan. This was reported by representatives of the press service of the department. The politician replaced Byrganym Aitimova, who previously held this responsible post.

Dariga Nazarbayeva devoted her first speech at the council meeting to the problems of the department, stressing that her primary task was to ensure direct communication and cooperation between the state authorities and society. In her new position, Dariga oversaw the implementation of the One Belt, One Road program, which represents more than 50 Kazakh-Chinese investment projects totaling more than $ 27.4 billion.

Major news about Nazarbayeva's life and political career is widely covered in the media. The politician does not use social networks or instant messengers in his work. Dariga does not have a personal Instagram.

Dariga has an independent political will, which she often demonstrates in her speeches. After her father announced in early 2018 that the entire state apparatus should switch to Kazakh, the woman spoke up in defense of the Russian language. She reassured the journalists that “no one has canceled the Russian language yet,” and most likely this will not happen in the near future. Nazarbayeva also called for interethnic harmony. Nevertheless, an increasing number of citizens of Kazakhstan are actively enrolling in the state language courses.

Dariga Nazarbayeva devotes her free time to creativity: while still studying at the university, she became interested in vocals. The girl was even invited to try her hand and pass an interview at the state conservatory, but a high-ranking father did not allow his daughter to leave the university.

Then talent turned into a hobby: Dariga Nazarbayeva often organizes charity concerts, striking listeners and fans with pure mezzo-soprano. The woman's repertoire includes Kazakh folk songs, arias from operas, and even compositions by Joe Dassin.

Even such a recognized pop master as Joseph Kobzon has repeatedly stressed that Nazarbayeva is incredibly talented. According to Joseph Davydovich, Dariga performs at the level of professional performers, not inferior in any way either in vocal art or in artistry. The singer herself emphasizes that she owes her set voice to Nadia Sharipova, a famous Kazakh teacher of opera vocal.

Dariga Nazarbayeva's talents are not limited to musical abilities: it is known that a woman speaks fluent English, Italian, German and Russian.

Despite the busy schedule and constant employment, in the biography of Dariga Nazarbayeva there was a place for romantic relationships. In 1983, the woman married Rakhat Aliyev. The man, like Dariga, was engaged in politics and diplomacy. As Dariga Nursultanovna herself later admitted in an interview, love arose at first sight.

Three children were born in the family of Dariga Nazarbayeva and Rakhat Aliyev. 2 years after the wedding, the woman gave her husband her first-born son, Nurali. In 1990, the second son was born. The boy was named Aisultan. The third child, daughter Venus, was born in 2000.

It seemed that this strong family could not be destroyed, but fate decreed otherwise. In 2007, Rakhat Aliyev was accused of organizing the abduction of the management of Nurbank. Dariga's husband fled the country, hiding for some time from the Kazakh authorities in Austria, where he received political asylum. But soon the Austrian authorities yielded to the demands of official Kazakhstan, and Rakhat Aliyev was arrested and taken into custody.

Some time after Aliyev fled Kazakhstan, the marriage with Dariga Nazarbayeva was terminated unilaterally, without the consent of the man. Aliyev's fate was tragic: after several years in an Austrian prison, the man was found hanged in a cell. It happened in 2015.

The doctors and representatives of the law named suicide as the official cause of death, although the press discussed a version of premeditated murder: the fact is that the date of the trial was approaching, at which, according to media reports, Aliyev was going to disclose compromising evidence on Kazakhstani officials. However, there was no confirmation of this version.

A woman prefers not to talk about this difficult period of her life. The strength of character and support of children and relatives helped her recover from the turmoil. And by this time, speculation about Dariga's new relationship appeared in the media. It was rumored that the personal life of the daughter of the first president of Kazakhstan had improved again.

According to unconfirmed information, Kairat Sharipbayev, chairman of the board of directors of KazTransGas JSC, became her common-law husband. Despite the fact that there was no official confirmation of this fact, the business conflict between Kairat, who is not the first in the power hierarchy, and Timur Kulibayev, the wife of Nazarbayev's middle daughter Dinara, indirectly testified in favor of this fact.

Now Dariga Nazarbayeva continues to build her political career. On March 19, 2019, it became known that Nursultan Nazarbayev resigned as head of state. The next day, Senate Speaker Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev was elected to this post, who will hold this position until the upcoming elections in 2020. Dariga Nazarbayeva was appointed to the post that Tokayev released.

According to political analysts, Tokayev does not have the necessary economic experience, but he did a lot in the field of foreign policy, moreover, he personally knows many leaders of foreign countries, which will positively affect the country's image in the international arena.

Dariga Nazarbayeva, having extensive experience in business, social and political projects, actively took on new responsibilities. Already at the first sessions of the Senate of Parliament, the politician called on her colleagues to pay close attention to environmental problems. Dariga raised this topic due to the recent fire at the Kalamkas well, as well as pollution of the Ural River, which led to the mass death of fish. The Senate President called for tougher environmental legislation.
