Kazakhstan’s government resigned on Wednesday as demonstrators set fire to the capital in protest of rising fuel prices and the political hold of former President Nursultan Nazarbayev.
Videos throughout the country showed protesters yelling “Old Man, go away!” and gunshots were heard while public buildings were burned in the city of Almaty, Reuters reported.
All cabinet members resigned in response to the outburst, but protesters still left a path of destruction. Police were seen using water cannons and stun grenades against demonstrators.
The protests were triggered by a spike in fuel prices and the three-decade rule of Nursultan Nazarbayev who still has control over his party and is in charge of the security council. Current President Kassym-Jomart Tokaye was picked by Nazarbayev, Reuters noted.
“Calls to attack premises of civilian and military agencies are absolutely illegal. This is a crime and legal punishment may follow,” Tokaye said in response to the protests, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Almaty’s police chief, Kanat Taymerdenov, said in a statement 120 vehicles have been burned, 500 civilians have been injured and dozens of businesses have been destroyed.
Sounds as though folks in asscrackistan ain’t going to put up with it any more.

What can we do to get OUR cabinet members to resign en masse?
See I told you! Fxck Joe Biden Rising fuel prices across the globe are all his fault, along with rising food prices, clothing, vehicles & every rising price around the world. But unfortunately this is not true, absolutely none of it.
See CNN.
That is what an insurrection looks like.
Not a few people mulling around the buildings in Washington demonstrating reasonably peacefully until a washed up, mediocre Cop shoots a retired Vet who posed no real threat to anyone.
While it may have been alarming, it was NOTHING compared to Democrat Sanctioned torching of cities the attempted formation of CHAZ with real criminals slinging AK-47’s
Is there nothing left to burn in Portland? It sounds as though BLM and Antifa have moved operations to Kazakhstan.
Coming to a city in the US soon!
Ironic that this occurred just before the anniversary of 1/6/21.
Take US oil production out of the world market and this is the inevitable result. Under Trump US oil production was at an all time high and lead the world, this fucking Brandon malAdministration, consisting entirely of malicious, maladjusted malcontents knows this and deliberately and systematically set out to accomplish this.
If someone set fire to Washington DC or any Communist Demokkrat City of State. I’d make some Popcorn and sit back and enjoy the show!
