Published in News Digest

By empty (11/14/2006 issue of the CACI Analyst)

The For Reforms! opposition movement in Kyrgyzstan has called on Prime Minister Felix Kulov to resign. \"Given the current situation the movement calls on Kulov to resign, because the parliamentary majority does not back his government, which may lead to crises and confrontations,\" For Reforms! member and human rights activist Edil Baisalov said at a press conference on Tuesday. The current government cannot \"carry out important economic tasks,\" he said.

The current government cannot \"carry out important economic tasks,\" he said. \"It is necessary that the prime minister be an independent figure with a mandate from the parliamentary majority: this is not the case today,\" the human rights activist said. \"The Constitution came in force the day it was signed, and President Kurmanbek Bakiyev and Kulov should be guided by it, but this has yet to happen,\" Baisalov said.
