It is suggested to transform the militsiya into the police in Kyrgyzstan. The Prime Minister Sapar Isakov stated this at a national conference «Security and Crime Prevention Policy.»

According to him, the difference is very significant. The militsiya is a militaristic organization that has existed since the Soviet times. Its impact on the activities of society is minimal. While the conceptual task of the police is communication and cooperation with society.

The head of government added that he instructed to study the experience of neighboring countries in introducing the police.
