Authorities in both countries are calling the event historic

Previously, the head of Kyrgyzstan's State National Security Committee (SNSC), Kamchybek Tashiyev, and his Tajik counterpart, Saimumin Yatimov, signed a document on Friday, February 21, to delimit the borders of the two states.

Earlier, on December 4, 2024, Dushanbe and Bishkek completed the description of the disputed sections of the border. The meeting of government delegations on delimitation and demarcation in the city of Batken in Kyrgyzstan was held in an atmosphere of friendship and mutual understanding.

Before that, in early May, there was another incident of incomplete delimitation on the border of the two republics. There was a conflict between Tajik shepherds herding cattle near the border and Kyrgyz border guards , which ended in a shootout. One of the Tajiks was wounded.
