The head of the press service denied statements about the "blocking" of access to the president

The head of the president's press service, Daiyrbek Orunbekov, refuted the claims of Syimyk Zhapikeev that access to the president is allegedly restricted by his entourage. He stated this in his post on Facebook.

Orunbekov emphasized that the president makes decisions about meetings himself and is not influenced by outsiders. He added that the head of state is always aware of current events and, as needed, communicates with district and territorial leaders to obtain relevant information and develop solutions.

According to the press service head, the president receives a significant portion of data from the delegates of the Kurultai, who directly present their ideas and issues.

He also noted that Syimyk Zhapikeev, if he had the desire and authority, could become a delegate of the Kurultai and convey his thoughts to the president independently.

Orunbekov reminded that the administration staff perform their duties in accordance with their functions. He, in particular, deals with the overall information policy, while the press secretary is always close to the president.

In conclusion, the official called on everyone to be responsible and to refrain from spreading false information.

“Please, esteemed ‘kitchen general,’ show prudence and do not disseminate inaccurate information,” emphasized Daiyrbek Orunbekov.
