Dariga Nazarbayeva, daughter of the Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, and a member of the Kazakh Senate, has said the rumors that she is going to succeed her father as the president are speculations, RIA Novosti reports.
“I see myself as a person who truly and faithfully serves to motherland, and as a member of our president’s team. This entire guessing is just a speculation,” Nazarbayeva told reporters.
