ALMATY, Kazakhstan (AP) — Kazakhstan's prime minister has carried out a Cabinet reshuffle just days after President Nursultan Nazarbayev was comfortably reelected.
The government resigned Friday as required by the constitution after Nazarbayev was sworn in for a new five-year term. Prime Minister Karim Masimov was reappointed later the same day.
New Cabinet officials appointed Monday include the heads of the foreign, agriculture and economy ministries.
Masimov said on his Twitter account that the appointments had been approved by the president.
Masimov said in a recent interview that a strong mandate for Nazarbayev would ensure a strong impetus for economic and political reform.
