<s>[INST] The next text is a question of a member of the European parliament:"On 18May, the security forces arrested Max Bokayev and Talgat Ayan, two leading activists opposed to land reform in Kazakhstan, who have since been held in jail on criminal charges of fomenting ‘insurrection’ in an attempt to overturn the government, a request to hold a peaceful demonstration being adduced as evidence of their ‘guilt’.  The authorities have initiated proceedings against the two men in what will be a high-profile political trial intended to intimidate trade unionists and oil workers in western Kazakhstan who have been taking an active part in land reform protests.   All those arrested are facing long prison sentences. Max Bokayev has since contracted an acute form of hepatitis C in prison, for which he is not receiving adequate treatment, which means that his life is now in the balance.  1.What view does the Vice-President/High Representative take of these developments in Kazakhstan?2.What action will it take to secure the release of Max Bokayev and Talgat Ayan, who are facing prosecution for nothing more than exercising their right to a peaceful protest in a bid to prevent the privatisation of natural resources rightfully belonging to the people?"
