The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic has made an urgent appeal to its citizens located in the United States. In light of the ongoing mass protests and rising tensions in certain cities across America, the ministry strongly recommends that Kyrgyz citizens exercise heightened caution and avoid areas where large crowds gather.
Diplomats urge compatriots to refrain from participating in any protests, rallies, or demonstrations to avoid putting their safety at risk. Special attention is also drawn to compliance with immigration regulations: citizens must always carry original identification documents and carefully monitor the validity of their visas and residence permits.
To provide prompt assistance to Kyrgyz citizens in the USA, the diplomatic missions in Washington and Chicago are operating in a state of heightened readiness. In case of emergencies or security threats, citizens are advised to immediately contact diplomats via the 24-hour hotline numbers: in Washington (+1 202 449-98-22, +1 202 256-2924) and in Chicago (+1 312 994-24-16, +1 312 929-34-42), or they can reach the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bishkek at +996 999 312 002.
