  • A New Russian Base in Southern Kyrgyzstan: Containing Uzbekistan?1
    A NEW RUSSIAN BASE IN SOUTHERN KYRGYZSTAN: CONTAINING UZBEKISTAN?1 On July 7, Igor Sechin, Russia’s Deputy Prime Minister supervising law enforcement agencies and a close ally of Prime Minister Putin along with Anatoly Serdyukov, Defense Minister, met Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiyev in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, to discuss, as officials of both countries confirmed, the possibility of establishing a new Russian military base which will formally serve as the base for Collective Operational Response Forces [CORF] under the Collective Security Treaty Organization auspice (in Russian: Коллективные силы оперативного реагирования ОДКБ). The location for a new contingent of Russia’s increasing military presence, if the plan is materialized, is as an old Soviet military base in the outskirts of the Kyrgyz southern capital, Osh, situated in the heart of the volatile Ferghana Valley and bordering China, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Map of Osh province2 In June, the leaders of CSTO (member-states include Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan) met in Moscow at their regular summit and signed an agreement on the creation of the Collective Operational Response Forces under CSTO. The idea to create a new joint forces agreement, under Russian command, to combat terrorism and other security challenges in the region was earlier discussed at the February CSTO extraordinary summit. The June summit transformed the decision into a functioning document that Russia conveniently used to minimize American political and military presence in Central Asia. Containing disobedient leaders of former Russian colonies is another purpose of the CSTO. Uzbekistan, always suspicious of Russian neo-imperialistic intentions, did not sign the agreement.
