	Kyrgyzstan - Foreign Relations
		Kyrgyzstan's foreign policy has been controlled by two considerations--first, that the country is too small and too poor to be economically viable without considerable outside assistance, and second, that it lies in a volatile corner of the globe, vulnerable to a number of unpleasant possibilities.
		Kyrgyzstan is bordered by four nations, three of which--Kazakstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan--are former Soviet republics.
		A meeting of the heads of the state security agencies of Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakstan, and Uzbekistan, held in Osh in the spring of 1995, also drew the conclusion that ethnic, social, and economic conditions in Osh were increasingly similar to those in Tajikistan in the late 1980s, thus recognizing the contagion of Tajikistan's instability.

		In the early 1990s, Kyrgyzstan was considered the most reform-minded country in Central Asia, and it was hoped that the national consensus formed in March 2005 would give political and economic reform a renewed impetus.
		Kyrgyzstan’s short to medium term economic prospects are uncertain given the economy's vulnerability to international price shocks, its dependency on gold exports, heavy reliance on international donors and the stalled reform process.
		Although Kyrgyzstan has moved further and faster than other CIS countries to liberalise its economy and was the first Central Asian Republic to join the World Trade Organization (WTO), its reforms are perceived as not having yielded significant local benefits.
