After days of violent protests, Kazakhstan is restoring facilities in the largest city of Almaty and other regions hit by the violent attacks, as its President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev urges. Tokayev said that his country had weathered an attempted coup d'etat thanks to troops from the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organization. Chinese President Xi Jinping also sent condolences to Kazakh President Tokayev.

To find out, we've invited Djoomart Otorbaev, former Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan; Einar Tangen, independent current affairs commentator; and Wang Jin, associate professor from Northwest University of China.
