President's close relatives will be prohibited from taking political positions and leading the quasi-governmental sector in Kazakhstan, the country's President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said in his address to the people, Trend reports.

“The head of state must act as a firm guarantor of equal opportunities for all citizens. Therefore, for the closest relatives of the president, a legislative ban will be introduced on holding positions of political public employees and leaders in the quasi-governmental sector,” Tokayev noted.
