💨 Abstract

Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan have signed a deal to demarcate their shared border, aiming to end a long-standing conflict that has resulted in numerous skirmishes, including a six-day conflict in September 2022. The agreement also includes the reopening of transport links between the two countries, suspended since the September battles. Disputes over the border stem from Soviet times and both countries host Russian military bases, maintaining warm relations with Russia.
