Parliamentary Elections in Kyrgyzstan May Face Mass Protests

As the member of the Communist Party's Central Committee Sergei Kojemyakin told Sputnik, parliamentary elections in Kyrgyzstan, which will take place on Sunday, October 4, may face mass protests.

 

''Kyrgyzstan most probably will face protest actions after ballot day so only three or four parties will be able to outcome the percentage barrier. The rest will announce falsifications and breaches. I think that some left in the basket parties will try to exert pressure on the power. It is hard to say whether it will lead to next 'color revolution,' but probably to destabilization efforts," Sergei Kojemyakin said.

 

He also added that participation in the electoral race is very difficult as parties have to pay a mandatory election deposit of 5 million Kyrgyz soms (over $72,000 at the current exchange rates), which was paid by 14 parties.
