"In answer to the question whether Kazakhstan can see developments similar to those which happened in Kyrgyzstan I say it can," she said at a regular session of the Asar party in Astana on Tuesday.
According to Nazarbayeva, the world is faced with a new problem, which is the export of democracy. "As a matter of fact, this is a new technology of imposing puppet governments on strategically important territory," she added.
"Unfortunately, Kazakhstan may become a target for such pseudo-democratic pressure," Nazarbayeva said.
"The country is being affected by internal destructive forces. Bureaucracy has turned into a closed caste, while the parliament is not capable of controlling the power."
"The parliament is the government's subordinate body," said the Asar leader, who is also a member of Majilis (the Kazakh parliament's lower chamber).
She stressed that all these factors fueled negative trends in society and exacerbated the opposition's radical views. At the same time, she said that "the opposition had no grass-root support."
Nazarbayeva said that the Asar party "distanced itself from the declaration on transition from the presidential republic to the parliamentary model." "This is absolute utopia."
According to her, it is necessary to start gradually decentralizing the power and change over to a voting by party lists in parliamentary elections in order to form the government in accordance with the principles of parliamentary majority.
The official stressed that political reforms were possible if only mass media were free and independent.
Nazarbayeva proposed an establishment of a people's union for democracy and called on all the country's progressive forces to join it.
