A significant proportion of Kazakh citizens are ethnic Russian. A more significant proportion of the Kazakh population just want want stability.
I hold no firm opinion myself as to the true cause of the current unrest , but the news I am hearing from personal contacts in Kazakhstan is largely supportive for CSTO deployment.
The general opinion amongst those I am in contact with in Almaty is that Russian led CSTO intervention is welcome and required.
As a relative (pun intended) outsider I also support CSTO intervention.
Enough pussy footing around with radicals and trouble makers.
