But starting in late 2010, the company's CEO began to slowly and steadily push Nokia in the other direction, towards abandoning its developments. All divisions of RnD and all the developments of the company were destroyed so that the company could no longer return to the right path.

As a result, Microsoft bought Nokia's mobile business.

Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan have agreed to launch a new multimodal Southern Transport Corridor, which will bypass the territory of Kazakhstan. The new route solves two tasks: to avoid obstacles arising on the Kazakh border for goods going to the markets of the Russian Federation, and to transfer part of the cargo flow to the port of Astrakhan. This will deal a blow to Astana's plans to make Kazakhstan a full-fledged transport hub in Central Asia and the Caspian region. The route from China through Kyrgyzstan will become a very serious competitor to the route on Kazakhstan railways.
