Gazeta.kz reports that the United States are to reduce its military presence in Central Asia. John Abizaid, Head of the US Central Command, said:
“The level of our co-operation will be growing, but the US military presence will decrease.”
Now that a deal on the Manas airbase in Kyrgyzstan has been inked (as Yulia and Nathan reported), the question of whether the US is actively seeking replacement for the abandoned K2 base in Uzbekistan seems to be answered.
