Karim Qazhymqanuly Massimov (Kazakh: Кәрім Қажымқанұлы Мәсімов, Kärım Qajymqanūly Mäsımov, [kæɾɘm qɑʑəmqɑˈnʊlɯ mæsɘməf]; born 15 June 1965)[2] is a politician who served as a Prime Minister of Kazakhstan from 10 January 2007[3] to 24 September 2012 and again from 2 April 2014 to 8 September 2016.[4]
Massimov served as Deputy Prime Minister from 19 January 2006 to 9 January 2007[5] and as Minister of Economy and Budget Planning, Minister of Transport and Communications in 2001.[6] President Nursultan Nazarbayev nominated Massimov to succeed Daniyal Akhmetov as Prime Minister on 9 January 2007.[2] The Nur Otan party endorsed Massimov's candidacy and Parliament confirmed the nomination on 10 January.
On 24 September 2012, Massimov's Premiership ended when President Nazarbayev dismissed him as from the position,[7] appointing him chief of staff of the presidential office in order to readjust the power balance between various factions within the government.[8] He was the head of Kazakhstan's National Security Committee[9] until he was dismissed by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on 5 January 2022 and shortly after detained on suspicion of alleged treason.[10][11] Since 6 January, Massimov has been a political prisoner, awaiting the result of a trial which has been classified as 'top secret', lacking any form of independent or public scrutiny.[12] In November 2023, a second criminal case was opened against Masimov for legalization, laundering of money obtained by criminal means, and receiving bribes on a particularly large scale.[13][14][15][16]
