According to a budget proposal adopted in the Karachai-Cherkessi parliament, the administration will organize cultural, religious, military ceremonies and sports games for Kazakhs to attend. Officials said that future organizations of ceremonies and games would reinforce the spiritual side of Kazakhs, gain them a sense of aim and make them culturally stronger.
The 2002 statistics say that there are 2051 Kazakhs living in Karachai-Cherkessia. Most Kazakhs chose Zelenchuk and Urup as places to live in.
