Road connecting Rishtan and Sokh opened
The Rishtan-Sokh road, which opened in the summer of 2019 and was closed two days later at the request of the EAEU, has been reopened today, April 1.
The opening of the “Rishtan” customs checkpoint was attended by officials led by the khokim of Fergana region Khayrullo Bozorov and the governor of Batken region Omurbek Suvonaliyev.
The Rishtan-Sokh road was reopened in August 2019 but closed again two days later. PM Abdulla Aripov said back then that this was a request of the Eurasian Economic Union.
Due to the closure of the 19-kilometer road, the people of Sokh had to cross an 80-kilometer detour to get to Rishtan.
It should be recalled that President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Japarov arrived in Tashkent on an official visit on March 11-12. After the talks, the parties agreed to resolve all border issues within 3 months.
