Foreign Policy
Kyrgyzstan maintains close ties with Russia through the CSTO and Eurasian Economic Union, while also engaging with China on Belt and Road projects and the SCO. Its foreign policy has oscillated between pro-Russian and multi-vector approaches depending on the government in power. Key concerns include border security (ongoing disputes with Tajikistan), water rights, and protecting Kyrgyz labor migrants abroad. Kyrgyzstan has been receptive to Western development assistance and democratic governance programs.

MUN Delegate Guide
As Kyrgyzstan, emphasize your position as a small, mountainous developing state with genuine democratic aspirations despite setbacks. Advocate for landlocked developing countries, mountain ecosystems, and water resource governance.
Coordinate with Central Asian neighbors on shared water-energy issues. Align with Russia on security matters through CSTO but maintain openness to Western partnerships. Raise the issue of climate change impacts on glacial melt, which threatens your water supply. On border disputes with Tajikistan, seek peaceful resolution through international mediation. Highlight the vulnerability of remittance-dependent economies.
