Couldn’t possibly be their own actions hammering that wedge in, nope.

tl;dr:

Russia’s Security Council has accused the West of trying to drive a wedge between Russia and Kazakhstan by interfering in the affairs of sovereign nations, Russia’s TASS news agency reports. List 1 of 3 Kazakhstan decides to stop hosting Syria talks, surprising Russia. List 3 of 3 Kazakhstan is a bridge between the North, South, East and West. His comments raised eyebrows because Kazakhstan, which shares the world’s longest continuous land border with Russia, has for decades been a member of Moscow-led security and trade blocs and calls Russia its strategic partner. At the United Nations, Kazakhstan has largely chosen to abstain rather than back Moscow in votes on the Ukraine war.
