  • So impresssive. Great comment. Going to post it here. Well, as a kyrgyz citizen I would say there are millions of poor americans out there as well and there is enough cruelty in the US as in Kyrgyzstan.So it's an issue of a debate on what is better or what is not but one thing is for sure that Kyrgyz Government does't give a damn about what 's on kyrgyz population's mind because that's the way it's there.I call it post soviet syndrom.You do not realize how soviet way of life is still bugging even after USSR collapse. Current kyrgyz president is becoming more like Vladimir Putin now and if you know he is pure old soviet style KGB master.That's where you should look in to otherwise russians will do whatever it takes to undermine US policy out there. I'm not trying to judge America but when you go around the world with a wild foreign policy that you have do not wonder why countries like Kyrgyzstan closing american bases.Because US government is giving a reason to do so and that's what goes on someones hand like kyrgyz president K.Bakiev who is solely behind the air base shut down not kyrgyz population.Average kyrgyz is just trying to survive there without any help from their own govenment and why do you think kyrgyz population does't care about it? Just give it some thought. Do you wanna know what's the reason for the air base closure? Try this.
