Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan Solve Border Conflict with New Agreement
(MENAFN) Kyrgyz Leader Sadyr Japarov approved a border agreement on Tuesday between his nation and neighboring Tajikistan, putting an end to a long-standing issue that had caused tensions in recent years between the two Central Asian nations.
The legislation was formally enacted by Japarov, as announced in a statement from the Kyrgyz presidency.
The statement mentioned that the bill, which was passed by Kyrgyzstan's parliament after three readings last Wednesday, aims to establish a legal and regulatory framework between both nations.
This framework is designed to promote stability, security, and favorable conditions for the citizens of both Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, particularly those living in border areas.
Additionally, the agreement is expected to foster greater socio-economic and humanitarian collaboration between the two nations.
On March 13, Japarov and Tajik President Emomali Rahmon signed a border agreement in the Kyrgyz capital, Bishkek.
The nearly 1,000-kilometer (621-mile) border between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan has long been a source of conflict, with the most intense violence occurring in 2021 and 2022.
In 2021, a three-day clash resulted in the deaths of 36 Kyrgyz residents and 19 Tajik residents.
In September 2022, two days of fighting led to at least 100 fatalities and forced around 140,000 people to evacuate.
