The nationalist statements of Kazakhstan's new information minister, Askar Umarov, are unacceptable, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

"We consider statements of a nationalist nature, this includes everything: xenophobia, and incitement of hatred, etc., which rightly caused, as many have said, an exacerbated reaction among the citizens of both Russia and Kazakhstan, unacceptable," she said at a briefing.

Russia considers the appointment of Umarov an internal affair of Kazakhstan, the country's leadership is determined to strengthen ties with Russia, she added.
