In an interview on Thursday answering the question on these accusations President Zhaparov said that the interests of both sides were taken into account when delimiting the border.
“We exchanged the areas where conflicts occurred. Therefore, I want to assure you that the parties in the land exchange did not pursue any strategic goals.
Because these lands are either enclaves, or are located in a checkerboard pattern, or directly border our villages. We also received their villages.
We see that their people also criticize their government. When settling the border between two states, one cannot be guided only by the interests of one village.
The border has been settled forever. That's it, the point has been made, the interests of both sides have been taken into account.
There is still much to say about the border.
But now is not the time. Let it all end, and then we will say.
Then history will judge us. I am sure that it will give us an excellent mark,” he said.
