Abstract |
The paper deals with historical and legal issues of
establishing statehood and territorial boundaries of
the Russian State. The reasons of Russia’s extension
to Kazakhstan are examined. In terms of
territorialism the Russian State was formed for
several centuries, meanwhile, it extended its
boundaries mainly towards the south and the east.
The joining of Kazakhstan to Russia was preceded by
strong political ties between two nearest neighbours.
The Decree on joining the Junior Zhuz to the Russian
Empire was signed by Anna Ioanovna on February 19,
1731. In May, 1734 the chief secretary of the Senate
I.K. Kirillov led the Orenburg expedition for
consolidation of Russia’s positions in the newly
accepted Kazakh lands. The acceptance of
Kirgiz-Kaisak people into the Russian Federation in
Russian course books is interpreted according to the
existing conceptual approach of voluntariness. |
