Как Кунаев «узаконил» казахов в Иране

In 1972, the Iranian Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi visited Almaty. Dinmahamed Kunayev, aware of the Kazakh diaspora in Iran, appealed to the Shah to help them. Thus, nearly half a century later, tens of thousands of Kazakhs forced to flee their homeland during the Holodomor received Iranian citizenship, land for farming, and free medical treatment for their children. Amirhushang Danaei, an Iranian journalist, documentary filmmaker, and photojournalist who worked for a long time as a correspondent for the Iranian state television and radio company in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, spoke to exclusive.kz about this and more.
