Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiyev has rejected the resignation of the Cabinet, Deputy Prime Minister Adakhan Madumarov told a Tuesday news conference. \"The president did not accept our resignation. All of us remain. The president told us to triple our efforts,\" he said. \"The president believes that the decision of parliament describing the contribution of the majority of Cabinet members as unsatisfactory has no legal force,\" Madumarov said. \"All 17 Cabinet members, except Prime Minister Felix Kulov, submitted their resignations in response to parliament\'s assessment. He also wanted to resign but we talked him out of it,\" he said. \"There is no crisis in relations between the legislative and executive branches of power in Kyrgyzstan. It is normal for parliament to criticize the government. The government should have the power to defend its honor,\" Madumarov added. (Interfax)
