Kyrgyz interim government says talks with Bakiev possible
MOSCOW. April 14. KAZINFORM Kyrgyz interim Prime Minister Roza Otunbayeva does not rule out the possibility of talks with the deposed Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiyev who earlier said he would resign if the interim government guarantees his and his family's security and order in the country.
"[Deputy Prime Minister] Azimbek Beknazarov is on the south [of the country]," Otunbaeva said. "He will be in Osh and Jalal-Abad."
It is known that Bakiyev is also in hiding in the south of Kyrgyzstan, his traditional stronghold.
Otynbaeva said that the interim government needs to work out a format for the meeting with Bakiev.
The ex-Soviet Central Asian republic's interim government has removed Bakiyev's immunity from prosecution, enabling the authorities to issue a warrant for his arrest if he does not return to Bishkek on Tuesday, Kazinform refers to RIA Novosti.
