«Then there were peculiarities in politics: confrontation within party nomenclatures, political games, difficulties in the planned economy. All this influenced every republic, but the people did not talk about it aloud. Imagine how difficult it was to rule the country. Turdakun Usubaliev was able to do this. This is proved by history and time. In that era, the republic was assigned the role of a raw materials appendage.

During his leadership, industry, engineering, housing, hydropower were actively developing,» said the Prime Minister.
