After winning Kazakhstan's Sunday snap election, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev is expected to strengthen its ties with China and Western powers as Russia's invasion of Ukraine erodes Moscow's clout over former Soviet states in Central Asia.
Tokayev will win the presidential election after receiving the support of 82.45 percent of the voters, Astana Times reported, citing the Open Society International Institute for Regional Studies.
Snap presidential elections are set to be held in Kazakhstan on November 20 to elect the President of Kazakhstan. This comes against a series of fundamental and comprehensive political reforms, in continuing the process of decentralising political power in the central Asian country.
