Terribly confusing headline.. Kazakh club for learning Kazakh language seeing increased membership from Russian speaking Kazakhs?

Of course. Kazakh-speaking Kazakhs wouldn't need it.

Actually it said Russian speakers in Kazakhstan, so it doesn't make a distinction whether they're Russians or Kazakhs just what their primary language is.

Reading the headline initially I thought that perhaps this was Russians distancing themselves from their home country.

Also, don't forget about other ethnicities that mostly uses russian and decided to learn kazakh
