State Culture Agency Director of Kyrgyzstan dismissed from office

President of Kyrgyzstan signed an executive order to dismiss State Culture Agency Director, Sultan Raev.

The resignation paper reportedly does not contain a formulation - due to a transfer to another appointment.

As the news agency 24.kg previously reported, Kyrgyz parliamentarians were against the photo exhibition by infamous U.S. citizen Sergei Melnikoff, who often published anti-Russian slogans in his blogs.

"He made such slogans when he was abroad, where he has run to 22 years ago as a dissident. Moreover he a General's son," Raev said, answering parliamentarian's questions.

The group leader Ulugbek Romanov's reaction was indignant, therefore a person responsible for the Culture looks suspicious with such kind of explanations.

The White House reaction was immediate.
