 Kyrgyz security forces coordinator Felix Kulov has promised that he would guarantee the security of overthrown Kyrgyz President Askar Akayev, if he returns.

After talks with the new Prime Minister Kurmanbek Bakiyev, Kulov announced to the press that if Akayev returns, "He will have bodyguards, even more than usual, the property where he lives will be guarded, as will his movements and his meetings." Akayev told the press on Tuesday that he was prepared to resign if he was given the "relevant guarantees", but has said that he does not trust the assurances of Kulov. Kulov and Bakiyev are keen for Akayev to return to Kyrgyzstan to resign officially to remove doubts as to the legitimacy of their government. |
