Kyrgyzstan President Sooronbai Jeenbekov announced his resignation last Thursday in a bid to end the turmoil that has engulfed① the Central Asian nation after a disputed parliamentary election. Jeenbekov, who has faced calls to step down from protesters and political opponents, said in a statement released by his office that holding onto power wasn’t “worth the integrity of our country and harmony in society.” Kyrgyzstan was plunged②into chaos following an Oct. 4 vote that election officials say was swept③by pro-government parties. The opposition said the election was tainted④ by vote-buying and other irregularities⑤. Protesters then took over government buildings, looting⑥ some offices, and the Central Election Commissionnullified⑦ the election. Last Tuesday, Jeenbekov introduced a state of emergency in the capital, Bishkek. In an effort to stem the unrest, Jeenbekov endorsed the appointment of Sadyr Zhaparov, a former lawmaker who was just freed from jail by demonstrators, as the country’s new prime minister and Zhaparov’s new Cabinet.

10月15日，吉尔吉斯斯坦总统索隆拜·热恩别科夫宣布辞职。在一场有争议的议会选举后，这个中亚国家陷入动乱，总统辞职以求结束危机。面对抗议者和政敌要求下台的呼声，热恩别科夫在总统办公室发布的一份声明中表示，如果继续执政会“破坏国家完整和社会和谐，那就应该卸任”。10月4日的投票后，吉尔吉斯斯坦陷入混乱。选举官员称，亲政府党派在这次投票中大获全胜。反对派则称，选举存在买票等违规行为。随后，抗议者占领政府大楼，洗劫了一些办公室。中央选举委员会随即宣布选举无效。10月13日，热恩别科夫宣布，首都比什凯克进入紧急状态。为了平息动乱，热恩别科夫批准萨德尔·扎帕罗夫出任新总理，并批准了扎帕罗夫的新内阁。扎帕罗夫曾担任议员，刚刚被示威者从监狱中释放。
