freshly Kazakhstan has renamed its capital back from Nur-Sultan to:

  • A. Astana
  • B. Almaty
  • C. Shymkent
  • D. Aktobe

Correct Answer: A. Astana

Kazakhstan’s capital is set to soon be rename back from Nur-Sultan to Astana after the Parliament endorsed the draft law on constitutional amendments required to rename the capital on Sept. 16. The document now awaits President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s discretion. President Tokayev had agreed to restore the former name of the country’s capital just three years after he proposed to rename it in recognition of the special role of the outgoing president Nursultan Nazarbayev, one of his first moves upon taking office in March 2019 when Nazarbayev unexpectedly stepped down.
