Priority issue for Kyrgyz Embassy in Ukraine remains evacuation of citizens – MFA rep

Bishkek, March 4, 2022. / Kabar /. The Embassy of Kyrgyzstan in Ukraine is in constant contact with our citizens, despite the difficult and dangerous situation in the country, Director of the Information Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Nurlan Suerkulov said in a statement.

He said that at present, the evacuation of citizens who wish to leave the territory of Ukraine remains a priority issue for the embassy.

“In connection with the introduction of a state of emergency on the territory of Ukraine, our citizens are being evacuated to third countries. For the prompt resolution of emerging issues, for example, when crossing checkpoints, employees of our Embassy personally accompany the evacuated citizens. Now our colleagues are in Lviv. There is a joint work with our Embassy in Hungary.

Also, on our instructions, with the assistance of the Honorary Consuls of Kyrgyzstan, the transportation of citizens of Kyrgyzstan from Kharkov to Lvov by rail is organized. Those citizens who do not want to be evacuated are advised to stay in protected places,” Suerkulov said.
