MOSCOW, January 7/ Sputnik Radio. The CSTO peacekeeping mission, which arrived in Kazakhstan on a temporary basis, will not participate in the elimination of militants, the task of the contingent is to cover and protect, first deputy head of the presidential administration of the republic Dauren Abayev said.

On the eve of the first units of the collective peacekeeping forces of the CSTO landed in Kazakhstan.

"The mission is a peacekeeping one. CSTO soldiers do not participate in hostilities and are not engaged in the elimination of militants. There is no need to confuse a peacekeeping mission with the introduction of a collective rapid response force. At the same time, the CSTO peacekeepers will perform cover and security functions," Sputnik Kazakhstan quotes Abayev as saying.

Protest actions in Kazakhstan began on January 2. Initially, residents of the cities of Zhanaozen and Aktau came out to rallies against a twofold increase in prices for liquefied gas.

However, soon clashes with the police and attempts to seize authorities began to occur in other cities of the republic.

On the fourth of January, the authorities ordered to introduce state regulation of prices for liquefied gas and gasoline for six months and returned prices to the previous level, but the protesters did not calm down, and by the evening looters became more active.

On January 5, President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev dissolved the government and announced that he was becoming the head of the Security Council instead of the first president of the republic, Nursultan Nazarbayev.

A state of emergency has been imposed on the entire territory of the republic.

The Kazakh authorities have asked for help from other CSTO members to neutralize the "terrorist threat".

The Organization has sent a collective peacekeeping force to the Republic. They will stay in the country for a limited period of time and help the Kazakh security forces in stabilizing the situation.

Earlier, Sputnik radio reported that all akimats and police departments of Kazakhstan have been taken under the control of the authorities.
