«It is gratifying that our opinions and positions on many key issues coincide. To enhance the full range of cooperation, it is necessary to improve the effectiveness of bilateral mechanisms. In this regard, the Interstate Coordination Council, the Kyrgyz-Tajik intergovernmental commissions for the comprehensive consideration of issues and delimitation and demarcation of the state border should work on a regular basis. For a long time our peoples have been waiting for the completion of the delimitation of the state border.
