Ukraine to scale up Plast movement, plans to allocate over UAH 60 mln – Sports Ministry

The Russian Interior Ministry has expanded its presence in Kyrgyzstan, with a new representative office in Bishkek now tasked with handling a wider range of law enforcement matters and engaging in information sharing with Kyrgyzstan's Interior Ministry. This comes after an agreement was signed on November 26, 2025, replacing part of a 2017 accord on establishing reciprocal representative offices for migration cooperation.

The Russian office will now operate under an agreement covering both internal affairs and migration, facilitating coordination between the two ministries and allowing them to interact with government agencies, international organizations, and civic groups. The expanded cooperation aims to address issues such as the detainment of Russian citizens in Kyrgyzstan, including anti-war activists and activists from opposition movements, as well as incidents involving Kyrgyz citizens sent back to Russia.
