In kyrgyzstan opposition protests continuing despite the resignation of the Prime Minister and the promise of a new election but there is growing confusion over whos running the country demonstrators have taken control of government buildings and the Prime Minister has been replaced by an opposition politician he was freed from jail the day before all by protesters and the uncertainty follows the an element of sundays parliamentary election which many say was rigged Charles Stratford joins us live now from bishkek charlie i know youve got some new reporting for us what do we know. Weve had an analysis from the the Coordination Council now this is a group of opposition parties 13 opposition parties that was formed yesterday off to the clearing up the square by Security Forces. And they have come out and made a statement saying that yesterdays parliamentary session that voted to make the so there who is in the building we understand behind me the new Prime Minister there saying that that session is invalid and they have put their own man forward they put their own candidate to be Prime Minister and they are demanding that parliament holds what they describe as a secret session of the secret location story in order to vote on whether to keep the power of the Prime Minister or indeed their man and it just shows you once again how difficult the situation is here its a power of the day said that he thought that in his words there were forces in the country that were trying to mount a counter revolution one would think hes referring to a Council Revolution against a decision that was made to make him Prime Minister as weve been reporting this is a man that was released from jail freed from jail by his supporters a couple of nights ago serving an 11 and a half year sentence for kidnapping. His criminal record was white playing with last night by the Supremes Court supremes it doesnt carry much legitimacy with many of the people in this country. We still havent heard anything today from the president s nothing since yesterday morning and you know the sense of uncertainty and chaos continues in bishkek and were we understand in other cities around the country as well nobody really has much idea whats going on and indeed whos in charge that full of this committee or a commission or whatever the theyre calling it get the sense that that means the protest is coming together instead of staying fractured and if they are does that increase the chances that they will get what they want or is they just too many variables in play just now. There are so many variables at play i mean logically you would think that a coalition of 13 opposition parties coming together and making a Statement Like that would suggest unity but it was only this morning that we were standing in the square listening to representatives of those various parties and they seem to be contradicting each other on who to put forward there seems to be a splits as well within the opposition or basic split amongst those who prefer a younger politician the younger leaders who basically want to purge the old leadership and those that want more established names people with more experience. And of course. The the the new Prime Minister. Standing sticking to his guns and saying that he is the man to hold that position and is its important to recognize as well that this man is accused of having contacts or having backers who have very dubious histories of people with great power and many of whom are accused of actually being criminals now he denies that but he certainly has a lot of backing a lot of support from people who believe in what he says and he carries a message which is. Often described as being quite nationalistic. There are so many variables there are so many ways that this is split whether it be a young old argument whether it be a rural poor or. Whether it be a nationalistic more populous starkey mental more liberal thinking idea. The fact of the matter is there is no real agreement at the moment and we wait to see what kind of reaction your power of speech will have to this announcement by the Opposition Coalition council that they are going to put forward their man for the position of Prime Minister ok charles many thanks charles for their reporting live with a developing story out of the bush camp.
