According to Kyrgyz media, the Minister of Defense of Kyrgyzstan Baktybek Bekbolotov proposed at a meeting with the Secretary General of the CSTO Stanislav Zas to deploy a peacekeeping contingent of the Collective Security Treaty Organization at the Tajik-Kyrgyz border to resolve the conflict.
“As you know, I recently met with the Secretary General of the CSTO Stanislav Zas. I said that there will be no peace between Kyrgyz and Tajiks. The Kyrgyz have their own truth, the Tajiks have theirs. Until a third-party judge stands between us, there will be no peace,” the minister stated.
He suggested deploying a small CSTO contingent in disputed areas to address several tasks: monitoring the ceasefire and withdrawing heavy equipment from the state border.
Further, the political task of demarcating borders can be resolved, the minister believes, as this situation has been ongoing for not 30, but 98 years.
Border conflicts at the Tajik-Kyrgyz border were discussed at a trilateral meeting between the presidents of Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia in Astana.
At this meeting, it was emphasized that the signed protocols between Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan must be observed. Russian President Vladimir Putin promised to make efforts to stabilize the situation at the Tajik-Kyrgyz border.
