Nursultan Nazarbayev

Nursultan Nazarbayev is the first president of the Republic of Kazakhstan to whom the people entrusted the leadership of the country for the sixth time. He is considered the world record holder for the duration of his tenure in power and has successfully ruled Kazakhstan for almost 30 years, until March 19, 2019.

In 2007, for his services to his homeland and achievements in his post, the parliament of Kazakhstan approved Nazarbayev's right to hold the post of president for life. However, the politician himself made a different decision.

Nazarbayev Nursultan Abishevich was born on July 6, 1940 in the Alma-Ata region in the village of Chemolgan. His parents were ordinary workers in the agricultural sector, but highly respected people in the village. They raised their children in love and care, instilling in them national traditions, reverence and respect for adults.

The childhood of the future Kazakh president fell on the difficult war and post-war years, when the consequences of the exhausting "cold war" fell heavily on the shoulders of the common people. But the care and love of their parents helped Nursultan Abishevich, his sister and brothers to survive the hunger and grief of those years, which allowed them to grow up as cheerful, hard-working and sensitive people for whom friendship and mutual assistance were the meaning of life.

The school years of the only president of Kazakhstan were bright and rich in the Kaskelen school. He was an inquisitive and diligent student who was singled out by teachers from all students in the school. Especially Nursulstan Nazarbayev was fond of reading books and sports. It should also be noted that from the earliest years the future Kazakh head strove for leadership, was a public "ringleader" and knew how to win people over from the first minute of communication.

Immediately after graduating from high school, Nursultan Abishevich, wishing to get back on his feet as soon as possible and help his parents financially, decided to become a metallurgist and went to Temirtau, where a large construction site of a metallurgical plant had started. As a young specialist, he was sent to study at a vocational school in Ukraine in the city of Dneprodzerzhinsk. However, metallurgy was not the only industry in which a strong and purposeful guy showed himself. He actively showed himself in sports, proving his skills on wrestling grounds.

In 1960, the future head of the Republic of Kazakhstan successfully graduated from vocational school and received a diploma of a metallurgist. At that time, the working biography of Nursultan Nazarbayev began - he became a participant in the first smelting of Kazakh cast iron and plunged into work. The 20-year-old guy honestly divided his salary as a metallurgist, which was small, in half and sent half to his father, who spent the money on raising the younger brothers and sister of Nursultan Abishevich.

Very soon the young metallurgist showed his professionalism in metallurgy and with several of his comrades received a referral to the Karaganda Polytechnic Institute at the metallurgical faculty. After studying for three years in this institution, the young specialist was redirected to the "Plant VTUZ", which he successfully graduated and received a diploma of a metallurgical engineer.

In 1972, the biography of Nursultan Nazarbayev radically changed its direction, and the young metallurgist unexpectedly found himself in the world of politics. Then he was appointed to the post of secretary of the party committee at his own metallurgical plant, which allowed him to become the second person after the director of a large-scale enterprise. In his post, Nursultan Abishevich devoted himself completely to work, which earned him authority both among the workers and among the leadership. Thanks to this, in 1976 his career began to rapidly gain momentum - he was appointed secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Kazakhstan, in 1984 he became the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Kazakh SSR, and already in 1989 he was almost unanimously elected as a people's deputy.

Nazarbayev’s term of office coincided with serious democratic processes in Kazakhstan. Mass strikes and protest actions took place in the republic - the people were dissatisfied with the monopoly of the central authorities and ardently wished for the republic's economic independence. Nursultan Abishevich actively supported the strikers, which subsequently affected the colossal support of the future president of Kazakhstan among the population.

In April 1990, in the Kazakh SSR, the Supreme Soviet established the post of president of the republic, and Nazarbayev was elected the first head of Kazakhstan. The people who came out of the "bottom" of the working people were entrusted by the people to govern the country - he did not disappoint during all the years of government.

The first term of the presidency of Nursultan Nazrabayev was the beginning of a new era of independent Kazakhstan. Since the recognition of independence and the beginning of the rule of Nursultan Abishevich, the country has achieved significant success in the global economy, which has not been possible for any state in the world.

The achievements of Nursultan Nazarbayev, who revived the republic on the ruins of a great empire, are difficult to describe in words. Thanks to him, Kazakhstan survived the difficult 90s without conflicts, since the leader who listens to the opinion of citizens without hesitation, firmly and calmly resolved political issues, wisely avoiding all sharp corners. When Nazarbayev came to power, the first program of Nazarbayev was the strategy "Kazakhstan-2030", the goal of which was to enter the republic among the 50 developed countries of the world. But it was achieved literally in 12 years, which allowed Kazakhstan to bear with dignity the title of a powerful and successful country, in which the people think in global dimensions.

Nursultan Nazarbayev overcame many barriers in his position, introduced Kazakhstan into a number of political, economic and military-political blocs. In 2007, he initiated the creation of the Eurasian Economic Union, with China, Russia and the United States becoming the republic's main economic partners.

In 2007, parliamentarians of the republic decided to amend the Constitution of Kazakhstan, and Nazarbayev received the lifetime right to remain president of the republic, if the people so decide. In 2010, the status of the Leader of the Nation was established for Nazarbayev, according to which he is completely exempt from criminal and administrative liability, which makes him inviolable.

In the Republic of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev became the first and so far the only president whom the people almost unanimously elected at every vote. In April 2015, Nursultan Abishevich was elected the head of the republic for the sixth time - he received 97.7% of the vote. This allowed Nazarbayev to become the record holder for the time in power among all the countries of the post-Soviet space, as well as to enter the ten most powerful rulers on the planet.

The personal life of Nursultan Nazarbayev, like the leader of any country, is an important state secret. It is known that the Kazakh leader married in his early youth, in 1962, to Sara Kanukaeva, whom he met in the blast-furnace shop of his native steel plant. The spouses worked hand in hand for the benefit of their family, which allowed them to reach significant heights - Nursultan Abishevich became the permanent leader of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and Sara Alpysovna became the founder and president of the largest charitable foundation of the republic "Bobek".

In 1963, the Nazarbayev family was replenished with the first daughter Dariga, who followed in her father's footsteps and became a doctor of political sciences, which allowed her to enter the Kazakh parliament. In 1967, the wife gave Nursultan Abishevich a second daughter, Dinara. Nazarbayev's middle daughter became a teacher and currently heads the Education Foundation named after her father.

In 2011, according to Forbes, Dinara Nazarbayeva became the richest woman in Kazakhstan, her fortune was estimated at $ 1.3 billion. The youngest daughter of the President of Kazakhstan, Aliya, was born in 1980. She received an economic education and became a successful businesswoman of the republic, heading a large construction company in Kazakhstan "Elistra". Nazarbayev's daughters have already given their father 8 grandchildren, who, in turn, pleased their grandfather with two great-grandchildren.

As for the hobbies of the head of the Republic of Kazakhstan, they are versatile. The main hobby of the Leader of the Nation is literature - he is the author of a number of books and scientific articles on the historical path of his country. At the same time, Nazarbayev has poetic talent, he writes poetry on the theme of his big and small homeland. Also Nursultan Abishevich is fond of sports, giving preference to tennis, golf and alpine skiing.

On March 20, 2019, Nursultan Nazarbayev resigned as President of Kazakhstan. The statement was made on the air of the state TV channel on March 19. The politician thanked the people for their trust and admitted that he was happy to serve him.

Speaker of the Senate of Parliament Kassym-Zhomart Tokayev, who took the oath on March 20, was appointed acting head of state. He will be at the helm of Kazakhstan until the elections to be held in June 2019. Nursultan Abishevich retained the posts of chairman of the Security Council, chairman of the Nur Otan party, member of the Constitutional Council. He intends to remain with the people in the future.

On March 20, the new leader of the Republic of Kazakhstan proposed to rename Astana to the city of Nur-Sultan. This proposal was supported and adopted by the Parliament on the same day.
