The Prosecutor-General of Tajikistan, Habibullo Vohidzoda, met with his Kyrgyz counterpart, Maksat Asanaliyev, in Dushanbe to discuss strengthening bilateral cooperation in cybersecurity, counterterrorism, and transnational organized crime.
According to the Tajik Prosecutor-General’s Office, the meeting placed special emphasis on tackling cybercrime, which both sides identified as one of the fastest-growing global threats. The two officials shared experiences and proposals to bolster collaboration between their supervisory agencies, including the exchange of information, training of specialists, and coordinated investigations into digital crimes.
The talks also highlighted the importance of enhancing regional security and furthering bilateral legal and law enforcement cooperation.
A key topic of discussion was the recent signing of an agreement between Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan on the delimitation and demarcation of their state border—a move both parties described as a historic milestone. The agreement, they stated, reinforces trust, good neighborliness, and the fraternal relations between the two nations.
Vohidzoda and Asanaliyev expressed confidence that the accord would serve as a foundation for lasting border stability and expanded cooperation in mutual national interests.
The meeting took place within the framework of the 35th session of the Coordinating Council of Prosecutors General of CIS Member States. Established in 1995 and granted intergovernmental status in 2000, the Council aims to promote collaboration among the region’s prosecution services, develop intergovernmental crime-fighting programs, draft international legal documents, analyze crime trends, and coordinate efforts to uphold law and order.
The discussions were reportedly held in a spirit of mutual understanding and goodwill, reflecting the high level of trust between the prosecutorial bodies of Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan.
