Matveeva, Anna (2011) Kyrgyzstan: Balancing on the Verge of Stability. EUCAM Policy Brief No. 19, July 2011. [Policy Paper]
Abstract
Following the ‘revolution’ in April 2010, the subsequent interethnic violence in June and the recent international inquiry into these events, Kyrgyzstan is not in safe waters yet. The coming period leading up to the Presidential elections will be important for the country’s stability. What is the current situation in the South of the country, which saw clashes between Kyrgyz and Uzbeks, and what are the expectations for the presidential elections? Is Kyrgyzstan on the road to democracy, and what role can external actors play?
