The Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan adopted a resolution amending the document «On Certain Issues of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.»
The decision was made pursuant to a decree by President Sadyr Japarov, which approved a regulation on the interaction of law enforcement agencies in ensuring public safety and protecting the country’s territorial integrity.
According to the amendments, the Ministry of Emergency Situations now has the right to participate in measures to ensure public safety and the territorial integrity of the state, taking into account the principle of interchangeability between law enforcement agencies.
