The total length of the border between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan is 972 kilometers, 664 kilometers of which have been agreed upon. President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Japarov posted on Facebook.
According to him, 308 kilometers remain disputed.
«It would be good, if the approval process went faster. In my opinion, the process is going slowly. This is due to the fact that there are many disputed areas. The most important thing is that peace is needed, then we can resolve everything in the interests of both sides,» the head of state wrote.
Earlier it was reported that a regular meeting of the topographic working groups of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan was held in Dushanbe.
