24 hours after the violent revolt between police and anti-government protesters in the capital Bishkek, which caused the deaths of at least 65 people, Kyrgyzstan’s opposition said it had taken power and dissolved parliament. The new leaders declared they will have a six month interim government that will reform the Kyrgyz constitution and create new political parties that will seek democracy and pluralism before the elections.

Meanwhile, it was also said that Kurmanbek Bakiyev, the president, had run away to the country’s second city. In a country where a third of the 5.3 million people are poor, don’t have a job, the prices were constantly rising and the regimes were drowned in corruption, the discontent was huge, protestors affirmed. Kyrgyzstan's border control service said had closed its border with Kazakhstan yesterday at the request of the Kazakh authorities. The social and political situation in now worrying international community and the question of security of the population is, at the moment, the main priority.

According to the EU Observer, an EU official the situation is very complicated and precarious: "All the supermarkets have been completely looted - there's nothing to buy. But the small bazaars have reopened, so you can get fruit and vegetables. There is petrol. Policemen are patrolling but they are in civilian clothes. They are observing the situation, but trying not to provoke any violence. People are not leaving the city [Bishkek]. They are not expecting civil war. They know the example of Tajikistan and they are not up for civil war".
