Kazakhstan — Dossier militaire

MBB · 56/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.

Momentum +2 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).

Le Kazakhstan a continué de bien jouer le jeu multi-vectoriel — la pertinence du Corridor du Milieu croissant, des visites officielles vers l'Ouest, une croissance qui tient près de 5 %.

Une diplomatie d'État stable sur le pont terrestre qui compte : modestement positif, mérité.
