On 13th January Daniyar Usenov was assigned as the head of the president’s administration.
The previous chief of the president’s administration Medet Sadyrkulov left his post voluntarily. He said that “he has completed the task of the recovery of the state mechanism”. A lot of people called Medet Sadyrkulov a grey cardinal of the Kyrgyz politics.
Daniyar Usenov was the main director of the Fond of the Development of Kyrgyzstan. Earlier he was the vice-premiere and the major of Bishkek. Kyrgyzstanies are still remembering a lot of his absurd ideas which never have been completed.
Of course, users of Diesel forum have been discussing Usenov’s assignment.

The leader of oppositional group “For Justice” Alikbek Dzhekshenkulov named Usenov an odious and scandalous figure. He also reminded that Danijar Usenov quite often was in the centre of conflict situations.
Being the first vice-premier, he constantly clashed with prime minister Felix Kulov, parliament and some ministers, being the mayor, he had serious debate with Medet Sadyrkulov and some government officials. Besides, in my opinion, nobody remembers any question which he would finish, Alikbek Jekshenkulov told [4] Akipress agency [ru].
