The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic is holding a collegial meeting dedicated to summarizing the operational activities for the year 2025, as reported by the press service of the agency.
The meeting is attended by the Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic and the Head of the Presidential Administration, Adylbek Kasymaliev, the Minister of Internal Affairs Ulan Niyazbekov, as well as the leadership of the ministry and heads of various departments.
The participants of the meeting are discussing the results of the work of the internal affairs bodies for 2025, the progress of the "Safe Country" project, as well as issues related to improving the quality of service to citizens and defining priority areas for the work of law enforcement agencies.
Opening the meeting, Ulan Niyazbekov highlighted the key achievements made in 2025 and noted that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is actively implementing modern methods and digital technologies to enhance public safety.
In 2025, there was a significant decrease in the crime rate in the republic, and the crime detection rates improved. The Ministry of Internal Affairs ensured a high level of public order during more than 120 mass events, preventing serious offenses.
Additionally, over one hundred modern service buildings were put into operation in the republic, significantly improving working conditions for police officers.
By the directive of the head of state, the transition from the "Safe City" project to the "Safe Country" project is underway, the first stage of which started in June 2025. As part of this program, a tourist-ecological battalion was established in the Issyk-Kul region, which ensures the safety of citizens and order. The unit is equipped with modern equipment, contributing to a significant reduction in crime during the tourist season.
"We focus not only on maintaining order and combating crime but also on improving the quality of service to citizens, providing prompt assistance to Kyrgyz citizens and tourists. As a result, nearly 10,000 crimes were prevented," added the minister.
Ulan Niyazbekov also reported that the second phase of the "Safe Country" project will be implemented in 2026, during which it is planned to install over 20,000 video cameras and introduce new digital programs, which will enhance safety in public places and on the streets.
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs consistently fulfills the assigned tasks and takes effective measures to ensure the safety of citizens," concluded Ulan Niyazbekov.
Adylbek Kasymaliev emphasized to the meeting participants the priority areas for the further work of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, outlining tasks for strengthening the rule of law and citizen safety.
During the collegial meeting, he also presented state awards to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who distinguished themselves in the performance of their official duties.
