On March 26, 2026, the traditional annual meeting of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic Jeenbek Kulubaev with representatives of the expert community took place.
During the event, the Head of the Foreign Ministry presented information on the results of the diplomatic service's activities for 2025 and outlined the tasks facing the ministry in the current period.
In particular, Minister Zh. Kulubaev highlighted the historic significance of completing the border delimitation with Tajikistan as a key step in strengthening regional stability. High activity also continued at the international level: 190 meetings and visits were held, over 600 documents were signed, and Kyrgyzstan's diplomatic presence expanded with the opening of new embassies in Ethiopia and Egypt. Digitalization of the consular sphere became an important focus: the launch of the "Electronic Consul" system reduced document processing time by fourfold, and the organization of elections to the Zhogorku Kenesh (Parliament) abroad ensured increased turnout among compatriots.
Touching on the international agenda, Zh. Kulubaev reaffirmed his commitment to the principle of multi-vector policy and stated that Kyrgyzstan maintains a balanced position in relations with strategic partners—Russia, China, Central Asian countries, and Western countries—advocating for the peaceful resolution of conflicts based on international law.
Touching on plans for 2026, the Minister emphasized the special significance of Kyrgyzstan's chairmanship of the SCO, which coincides with the Organization's 25th anniversary, and outlined Bishkek's priorities for this period. He also discussed preparations for the 6th World Nomad Games and the Chyngyz Aitmatov Issyk-Kul Forum, which will serve as important platforms for promoting cultural diplomacy and strengthening the country's image on the global stage.
At the end of the meeting, Foreign Minister Zh. Kulubaev answered questions from experts, emphasizing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' openness to proposals and constructive dialogue.
