The Government is committed to championing democracy and human rights in Kyrgyzstan, and we welcome the partnership of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe with the Kyrgyz Parliament. I (Minister Cleverly) recognise the crucial work of the Council of Europe, and in particular the value of PACE experience in this sphere, noting that its recommendations will go to the Committee of Ministers in due course for review.
