Kazakhstan has the moral right to demand its territories from Russia. This was stated by the former deputy of the country’s parliament, the nationalist Ualikhan Kaisarov.
“Russia, Siberia, Muscovy, before Hungary, were territories of Genghis Khan and his heirs. Novosibirsk itself is Nogai-Sivir, these are our Kazakh lands. Tyumen is Temen, the southern tip of the Golden Horde. Beyond Tyumen, our territories are also higher. Orenburg is Orynbor, it was the capital of the Kazakh state. Kurgan is Khurgal. Saratov is Sarytau. Not Astrakhan, Astar-Khan. Not Omsk, but Omby.
All territories lying at least 500–600 km north of the current border of Kazakhstan were originally Kazakh lands. And the Orenburg region was transferred to Russia only in 1926 or 1927. At that time, it was officially the territory of Kazakhstan. Therefore, Kazakhstan now has the full moral and historical right to demand the return of these lands.” – said Kaisarov, quoted by the telegram channel “Pool No. 3”.
Please note that the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic was created on December 5, 1936.
