Deputy of Parliament of Kyrgyzstan Elmurza Satybaldiev met with fugitive president Kurmanbek Bakiyev in Belarus during an official visit of deputies to this country. He confirmed this information to Kaktus.media journalists.
According to the deputy, the meeting took place on neutral territory, not at the home of the former head of state.
«I met with Bakiyev as part of this trip to Minsk. He was my president, I worked under him. This is a purely human relationship. I wanted to see him and say hello. We talked about everyday topics, but not about politics,» the deputy said.
According to Elmurza Satybaldiev, except for him, none of the members of the delegation met with Kurmanbek Bakiyev. «The speaker did not have the opportunity to «even go to the toilet» outside the protocol,» he said, commenting on the likely meeting of Nurlanbek Shakiev with the fugitive president.
Deputy Baktybek Sydykov denied meeting with Kurmanbek Bakiyev.
