At the end of the CSTO events, a meeting was held in the Kremlin (November 11, 2026) between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Kyrgyz President Sadir Jafarov.
V.V. Putin: Let me congratulate you again.
We work with you, meet regularly, and this cannot but please us.
I would like to point out that our bilateral relations are developing in all areas, and they are developing successfully.
Russia remains Kyrgyzstan's leading trade and economic partner, its share in the republic's foreign trade is almost 26%. Trade turnover increased, last year it increased by more than 25%, reached record levels in absolute terms, mutual trade increased even more in January - September.
We always have something to talk about in this regard. I suggest that we pay attention to our bilateral relations on a number of current issues and our joint investment plans.
Once again I want to emphasize that I am very happy to see you.
Thank you for coming to the event within the CSTO; It would be appropriate to use this to talk about the development of our relations in a bilateral format.
