Kyrgyzstan has acquired two villages, Chongara and Tash-Tobo, from Uzbekistan as part of an ongoing border demarcation agreement between the two countries. The transfer was announced by Kyrgyz presidential spokesman Askat Alagozov, signaling progress in resolving a long-standing border dispute. This exchange represents a key step in formally defining the boundary between Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. The demarcation process aims to prevent future conflicts arising from unclear border delineations. Details regarding the rationale and compensation for the transfer were not immediately available. This agreement follows years of negotiations and intermittent tensions along the shared border. The move is expected to contribute to improved relations and stability in the region.
