“Anti-Western, especially anti-American mood obviously increases in Central Asia,” Kyrgyz political scientist Askarbek Mambetaliev said. He researches sources and causes of anti-Western moods in Kyrgyzstan and plans to bring up this theme for discussions in academic community.
“Researches on relations and regulations of Central Eurasian societal attitude toward stable regional progress and understanding among nations in global world are very important nowadays,” Askarbek Mambetov said. “Another reason of high importance is that nobody has been researching opinion of students – Kyrgyz decision-makers of tomorrow, about geopolitics and West.”
“Kyrgyzstan has a weight of regional security responsibility, which depends on Russia-USA relations and on opinions of Kyrgyz citizens toward these countries. That is why Kyrgyzstan announced its decision on democratic development and balanced foreign policy. This statement is based on politicians” opinions that if Kyrgyzstan looses the balance between the West, East, North and South it might turn into humanitarian disaster in means of sovereignty loss and armed conflicts,” political scientist believes.
