Luxembourg, 26/04/2010 (Agence Europe) - The EU remains concerned by the fragile situation in Kyrghyzstan following the disturbances at the start of the month. In conclusions approved by the Foreign Affairs Council on Monday 26 April, the EU highlights the importance of an early return to public order “under a democratic government that fully respects the rule of law and human rights”. EU foreign ministers call on the provisional government, which has taken power since ousted President Kourmanbek Bakiev left the country on 15 April, to abide by all Kyrgyzstan's international obligations and commitments. The Council is pleased that the provisional government, headed by former foreign minister Roza Otounbaeva, intended to begin constitutional reform and rapidly lay the proper groundwork for democratic elections. The EU calls on the provisional government to take account of the relevant expert opinions of ODIHR, the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights, and the Venice Commission in organising the constitutional referendum and the parliamentary elections announced for 27 June and 10 October 2010 respectively, the conclusions say.
