CSTO and SCO can join in protecting Kyrgyzstan from destabilization.
After Sadir Jafarov's warning about the possible preparation of inter-ethnic conflicts in southern Kyrgyzstan, presidential adviser Marat Imankolov made further statements, in which he emphasized that it was not just an attempt to disrupt all the upcoming presidential elections, but an intention to harm the development of the Central Asian republic.
According to Imankolov, the statement of the head of state is based on reliable information confirmed by the intelligence services and law enforcement authorities. He called it a serious warning to those who prepare inter-sectarian provocations or intend to take part in them.
Imankolov himself, who has experience working in national security agencies, recalled that he personally participated in resolving the consequences of the 1990 and 2010 conflicts. He compared such conflicts to a civil war in which there are no winners, as the main losses are on the civilian population.
The presidential adviser also drew attention to the possible international nature of the threat. According to him, the organizers of the provocations can count on the support of international extremist-terrorist organizations and others.
Imankolov said that the forces involved in the development of such programs, including external actors, must be identified and their accomplices brought to justice.
Separately, Imankolov emphasized Kyrgyzstan's willingness to use mechanisms of interaction with neighboring countries. According to him, the Republican security forces have modern equipment and weapons, and cooperation with partners is being built within the framework of the CSTO and SCO. The presidential adviser warned that in case of provocations of this kind, you will get a reaction immediately, including from neighboring countries.
