REALITY IN KYRGYZSTAN DESIRABLE FOR ARMENIA
President of Kyrgizia Kulmanbek Bakiev was quite angry to see the large-scale construction of elite building spread in the center of the country's capital Bishkek. ITAR-TASS informed that when walking in the streets he talked to the passers-by who expressed their indignation with the construction. On the same day the president fired the head of Bishkek's central district. It seems that the president wasn't aware of the construction in the center of the country's capital. Unfortunately, there is not tradition in Armenia for such walks.
