In response to these concerns, the state agency "Kabar" reached out to the president for his opinion and the expected consequences for the country.
President Japarov stated: "There will be no conflict. We should not make a tragedy out of this. Everything will become even better than it was. Life goes on, and if one friend leaves, I have more than 7 million friends behind me. My people and our state come first for me. Anyone who disturbs the peace of the people will be punished. We have enough strength and wisdom for this. The economy will grow, and both domestic and foreign policy will continue in the same direction."
On February 10, Japarov signed a decree relieving Kamchybek Tashiev of his duties as Deputy Prime Minister and head of the State Committee for National Security. At that time, Tashiev was undergoing treatment in Germany.
Tashiev returned to Kyrgyzstan on February 13, stating that he had to interrupt his treatment. On February 17, he left the country again.
