The Kazakh Foreign Ministry said it is currently awaiting clarification from Bishkek on President Atambayev’s statement that Kyrgyzstan is suffering casualties because of the blockade imposed by Kazakhstan, APA reported citing Kazinform agency.

In an interview to Euronews, Atambayev had said the following:

“We need to trade and work with our neighbors. Had we not joined the Eurasian Economic Union, we would’ve faced a blockade. In 2010, Kazakhstan imposed a blockade on us for a month and a half, which brought about casualties on our side.”
