Kyrgyzstan and the United Kingdom have discussed expanding bilateral cooperation through UK-backed financing for major investment projects in energy, construction, and digital development.
A meeting was held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic on April 14, 2025, between Deputy Foreign Minister Temirbek Erkinov and a delegation from UK Export Finance (UKEF), led by Sebnem Alp. UK Ambassador to Kyrgyzstan Nicholas Bowler also attended the talks, along with officials from several Kyrgyz ministries and Chakan GES LLC.
The discussions focused on strengthening economic ties and tapping into new financial opportunities. The UK side noted that UKEF is ready to provide £1.8 billion (around $2.3 billion) in financing to support a range of investment projects in Kyrgyzstan.
Deputy Minister Erkinov welcomed the initiative, emphasizing Kyrgyzstan’s interest in boosting cooperation with UKEF across key sectors including construction, energy, agriculture, mining, and digital transformation.
UKEF representatives delivered a presentation outlining the agency’s functions, financial tools, and potential collaboration models with Kyrgyz public and private sector actors.
Both parties agreed to continue dialogue and initiate work on specific joint projects in priority areas, marking a new step forward in UK–Kyrgyz economic relations.
