Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has announced that he will step down from his post in 2029, when his current seven-year term ends. He stressed that the president of any country is not a shadow of God on earth, but an ordinary servant of the people.

In Kazakhstan, the new law "On mass media" aims to gradually increase the share of information in the Kazakh language. From 2025, TV and radio programs in the Kazakh language should make up at least 55% of the total volume, and from 2027, 60%.
