BISHKEK, 12 April 2010 - Co-ordination of activities between international partners and national authorities is crucial for ensuring public safety and successfully addressing current political challenges in Kyrgyzstan, said the Special Envoy of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Zhanybek Karibzhanov today following meetings in Bishkek.
"We have met with a wide spectrum of society, including provisional administration leaders, members of the former parliament and civil society representatives. These talks have helped us get a comprehensive picture of the situation and the current political landscape in the country," said Karibzhanov. "Together we have identified spheres where the OSCE could make an effective contribution."
The primary areas of focus are ensuring public safety, reviving business activities and assisting the new administration in strengthening the existing legal system, said Karibzhanov: "Acting under a clear legal framework would raise public confidence and contribute to easing tensions in all parts of the country."
He praised the close co-ordination between the international representatives involved in the process - the UN Secretary General's Special Envoy Jan Kubis, the EU Special Representative for Central Asia Pierre Morel, the Special Envoy of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly Adil Akhmetov and the representative of the CSTO Valeriy Semerikov with whom he met yesterday and today.
"We are united in our support for efforts to restore stability in Kyrgyzstan, to ensure its peaceful development, and to improve the socio-economic situation in the country as well as the lives of the people. This way we will be able to achieve more than any of us would achieve working alone," Karibzhanov said.
Zhanybek Karibzhanov was appointed Special Envoy by the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office on 8 April. He is Deputy Speaker of the Majilis (lower house of Parliament) of Kazakhstan, which holds the 2010 OSCE Chairmanship.
