(AhlulBayt News Agency) - terrorists use Islam to their advantage, but they can not be called Islamists. Reserved Colonel of Kazakhstan Myrzatay Baltabev announced today at a press conference.
According to him, the events in Kazakhstan, acts of terrorism have shown the existing problems. They are the same for all Central Asian countries. "The population is not ready for it, it has Islamophobia. However, it is wrong to call terrorists the Islamists. They are Satanists. There is no other real way of influencing the public than a religion, which is used for own purposes. When I arrived in Kyrgyzstan, I saw a billboard which depicts women in traditional national dresses, and women in black dresses who looked like black crows. National traditions should be respected. And the Kyrgyz, Kazakh women always wore bright clothes. It is not necessary, of course, to put the body out for show," Myrzatay Baltabaev said.
The Reserved Colonel Akzhol Isaev noted that the security forces have decided to unite in the fight against terrorists. Members of non-state security and guard services intend to put the legislation of Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Russia in order to avoid discrepancies. "Terrorism has become a plague all over the world. Efforts will be united in the fight against it," he added.
It should be noted, that the first conference was held in Almaty, the second - in Ufa, and the third is scheduled for Issyk-Kul. At least 31 people will come from Russia, Kazakhstan - 15, China - 4, Kyrgyzstan - 29, Belarus - 2, Armenia - 1. Public officials and deputies show great interest to it.
