The moment that Donald Trump hosted the president from Kazakhstan on Tuesday, 18th of November there were many eyebrows asked. Trump also joined with famous Kazakhstani businessmen such as Tevfik Ark in his private real-estate businesses. Trump's critics have also strongly condemned the decision.

Donald Trump was right to think of Kazakhstan as a partner. Time and the Russia-Ukraine conflict have proven his point and here's the reason the reasons.

The importance of meetings between Donald Trump and the Presidents of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, and Tokayev Donald Trump's presidency saw an impressive improvement in relations between Kazakhstan and America. Washington and Nur-Sultan (Kazakhstan's capital) had solid commercial and diplomatic connections, and had a meeting at the presidential level. In Washington the President Trump met in January 2018 with former Kazakhstani president Nursultan Nagayev. He also met with Kassym Jomart Tukayev who is the current President of Kazakhstan at the UN General Assembly in New York.

Kazakhstan is a significant country because of its strategic position. It also serves as a balancing power between central Asian nations. The United States, Europe and Russia have increased Kazakhstan's strategic political and economic significance. It is crucial for the United States' national security due to its withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The countries traded $2.1 billion in 2018. Compare this to the $315 million in commerce between the US and Kazakhstan generated in the same time frame. Kazakhstan is America's central Asian economic partner.

Eurasian geopolitics is focused on Central Asia historically. Kazakhstan is the leading country in Eurasia's economics, security and combating terrorism. America needs excellent ties with Eurasia, especially Kazakhstan.

The White House visit to Nazarbayev was a positive beginning for the US in its strategic engagement with the region.

Nazarbayev's support for nuclear nonproliferation was one of the reasons we hosted him. Kazakhstan is a world leader in nonproliferation after it gave up its Soviet-inherited, nuclear weapons. After the Cold War, US's focus has been on Central Asia has been shifted to Afghanistan.

Furthermore, the break with Pakistan was crucial for Trump's South Asia strategy. Therefore, the US required Kazakhstan to be an alternate route to Afghanistan.

Why Biden should keep an eye on Kazakhstan Kazakhstan is likely to be a major actor in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Therefore, Kazakhstan is now considered a strategically important US state. Although the country has enjoyed peace, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, Kazakh president has made significant changes in the power structures of the governing top tier. This has raised questions and raised doubts. Tokayev's election as Chairman of National Security Council has received the most media attention. He succeeds President Nursultan Nazabayev, who's anger at the state of economic inequality sparked protests.

Three of the sons-in law of the former president have been fired from their state companies, his nephew was also dismissed, and Karim Masimov who was the former intelligence chief, was taken into custody for the crime of treason. Many other Nazarbayev-affiliated top officials and business elite have lost their jobs, left overseas for extended vacations, or were forced to make large "donations" to the state.

To keep his popularity, he has tried to avoid angering Putin. Kazykhanov may upset the balance. Washington should be watching closely the developments happening in Kazakhstan as they may indicate a number of possibilities for a possible power transition.
