Kremlin mum on possible deployment of Russian military along Kyrgyz-Tajik border

MOSCOW, June 26. /TASS/. The Kremlin spokesman has refused to comment on the possible deployment of a Russian contingent along the Kyrgyz-Tajik border in southern Kyrgyzstan.
"I will leave this matter without comment," Dmitry Peskov told journalists on Monday when asked about Kyrgyz President Almazbek Atambayev’s alleged initiative to deploy Russian soldiers along Kyrgyzstan’s southern Batken Region at the Kyrgyz-Tajik border instead of beefing up the military contingent at the Kant airbase.
