the President of Kyrgyzstan announced.
"With the support of 142 countries, Kyrgyzstan has been elected
to the UN Security Council for the first time for the 2027–2028
term. We view this as a great responsibility and intend to
contribute to strengthening international peace, security, and
multilateral cooperation," he said.
Addressing the 7th CICA Summit in Baku, Sadyr Japarov noted that
Kyrgyzstan had secured its first-ever election to the UN Security
Council with the support of 142 countries, describing the
achievement as a major responsibility.
Speaking about regional security, Sadyr Japarov emphasized the
importance of achieving lasting stability in Afghanistan through
sustained dialogue, economic recovery, and coordinated action by
the international community.
He noted that strengthening mutual trust, avoiding escalation,
and respecting international law could create conditions for
long-term peace and stability.
As an example, Sadyr Japarov cited the experience of Central
Asian countries, which had managed to resolve a number of complex
interstate issues through political will and direct dialogue.
According to Sadyr Japarov, Kyrgyzstan is ready to share this
experience with partner countries and continue engaging with states
across the region.
The 7th CICA Summit is taking place in Baku under Azerbaijan's
chairmanship, bringing together heads of state and government, as
well as delegations from CICA member states, observer states,
observer organizations, and partner entities.
The summit provides an opportunity to discuss dialogue and
confidence-building among member states amid rising interstate
tensions, escalating conflicts, and the emergence of new hotspots
of tension, including in Asia.
One of the summit's key outcomes is the admission of Laos as a
new CICA member. The summit is also expected to see the adoption of
documents aimed at intensifying the organization's activities and
strengthening cooperation in specific areas.
