President of Kyrgyzstan Sooronbai Jeenbekov noted at a meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia in Tashkent that it was more than ever necessary to continue joint work on completing the legal registration of state borders as soon as possible. Press service of the head of state reported.
According to it, Sooronbai Jeenbekov noted that the situation in Afghanistan and the Middle East, the spread of the ISIS ideology and other radical groups in the region were of deep concern.

The Kyrgyz side expresses its firm commitment to ensuring regional security,» the president stressed.
