Peter Rutland: “THE REVOLUTION IN KYRGYZSTAN WAS BOTH UNEXPECTED AND PREDICTABLE”

The bloody and chaotic overthrow of the Bakiev regime is not good news for anybody. For Western liberals, it merely highlights the sorry conditions in Kyrgyzstan, the one country in Central Asia that had tried to follow Western advice about the benefits of democratization, market reform and free trade.
