Kyrgyz presidential front-runner says to build on ties with Russia in case of victory

Bishkek, Jan 10 (Sputnik) Kyrgyz presidential hopeful and front-runner Sadyr Japarov has said that he intends to continue developing relations of strategic partnership with Russia in case of his victory in Sunday’s snap election.
The race for the top office in the Central Asian nation was called in October after then-President Sooronbay Jeenbekov resigned amid violent protests that followed parliamentary elections. During the turmoil, Japarov took over as both prime minister and president. In mid-November, he stepped down to run in the race.
"We have had allied relations with Russia for 30 years. This is our main strategic partner. We will continue this," Japarov told reporters.
