Since Taiwan plans to hold referendum on entering the United Nations Organization, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kyrgyz Republic informs that it does not recognize Taiwan as independent country, only as a part of China, informs KABAR. It seems that the MFA of Kyrgyzstan is too quick and clumsy in showing its support of China and its politics. Frankly, Taiwan would not care very much now about the opinion of Kyrgyzstan. Perhaps Kyrgyzstan should not have reacted to any news regarding Taiwan.

Recently, Kyrgyzstan also announced its position about the independence of Kosovo. Kyrgyzstan stated that it wouldn’t recognize the independence of Kosovo before it was accepted by the Security Council of United Nations. I doubt that many people in Kosovo ever heard about Kyrgyzstan, and Kyrgyzstan does not have tight political or economic relations with Serbia. So why Kyrgyzstan is very active in showing its position which perhaps was told by Russia?

Being a small country does not imply to agree and support everything which big countries want, especially for Kyrgyzstan, since besides Russia and China, it has partners who might have quite opposite opinions, like US, Japan, Germany, Turkey and some Arabian countries.
