Former President of Kyrgyzstan Almazbek Atambayev spoke about the meeting of ex-presidents of the country organized by the current head Sadyr Zhaparov.
As the press secretary of the head of state previously reported, the meeting took place on a neutral territory. As it became known to the Kyrgyz media, she took place in Dubai.
Atambayev said that he was at a meeting, but was not notified that it will be on the former heads of the republic.
“I was told that I was invited to meet with President Sadir Zhaparov and Kamchybek Tashiev so that we could talk on equal terms as free people and forget old grievances. I remember good and therefore could not refuse and canceled even a pre -planned meeting with the ambassador Spain about visas. As you know, the chairman of the government Pedro Sanchez invited me for treatment – for which many thanks to him!
I am also for peace and unity in the country. What he said. And I appreciate the good intentions of President Zhaparov. But at the end of the meeting, a situation arose when I was forced to leave in English without saying goodbye to anyone. If in the future there is a need, of course, I will tell you about the details.
The establishment of peace and unity in our country and the Bakiyev return to Kyrgyzstan are two big differences. Combining will give a completely different result. Too much blood is shed, too much should not and cannot be forgotten. And, of course, the perpetrators must answer. And first the relatives of the dead should be forgiven. And I hope that President Sadyr Zhaparov heard me and will make the right decision, ”said the ex -president of Kyrgyzstan.
Recall that last year the former president of Kyrgyzstan Almazbek Atambayev was justified in the case of riots in October 2020.
