Putin and Atambayev Discussed the Process of Kyrgyzstan Joining the EEU

In Sochi, Russian President Vladimir Putin met with his Kyrgyz counterpart Almazbek Atambayev. "We have many plans," said Vladimir Putin. These include investment plans, especially in energy, and serious plans for developing cooperation in other sectors, he added.

The head of Kyrgyzstan emphasized that his country will firmly and consistently develop and activate relations "with brotherly Russia, our strategic ally." "We will certainly face difficulties on this path, but if we take decisive action, we can solve many issues," he is convinced.

By the end of the year, Kyrgyzstan intends to join the Customs Union and the Eurasian Economic Union. "God willing, everything will be fine," Atambayev looks to the future with optimism.

"We will certainly discuss issues related to integration processes in the post-Soviet space, and primarily issues related to Kyrgyzstan's movement towards joining the Eurasian Economic Union and the Customs Union," confirmed the President of Russia.
