MOSCOW, March 27 (Xinhuanet) -- Kyrgyztan's new security chief, Felix Kulov, on Sunday ruled out the possibility of an internal war after political turmoil in the country gradually quieted down.
During an interview with a
Russian TV station, Kulov said the government will not allow activities of
extreme nationalists or threats against Russian-speaking citizens.
Until Thursday, Kulov had been in
jail on embezzlement charges that he said were politically motivated. He was
freed after opposition protesters seized the government headquarters.
According to Kulov, what has
happened in Kyrgyzstan is neither an insurrection nor a revolution masterminded
by exterior forces, but an inevitable result of the development of domestic
situation.
Kulov, who is also former vice
president of the country, said that an independent national committee will be
established to find out who should be responsible for the current situation.
As to ousted President Askar
Akayev, Kulov said that if he made the decision to go to Russia, he should have
his own reasons, adding that the rights of Akayev will be fully guaranteed by
the constitution if he chooses to come back.
Kulov also expressed his belief
that Kyrgyz-Russian relations will be improved. Enditem
