Parliament adopted a resolution on the human rights situation in Kyrgyzstan, focusing on the case of Temirlan Sultanbekov. The text condemns the shrinking of civic space and attacks on dissenting voices in the country. It urges Kyrgyz authorities to release arbitrarily detained opposition members, human rights defenders, journalists, and bloggers, and to respect international human rights obligations. Parliament also calls for repealing repressive laws and ensuring free and fair elections, and asks the EU to align its Central Asia strategy with human rights.
