Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that Russia does not want to see a second Afghanistan in Central Asia and the region should follow an evolutionary path of development, and not a revolutionary one. “We do not want to have another Afghanistan in Central Asia, there should be no revolutions, but evolution that would bring about the establishment of democratic governments,” Putin said about the situation in Uzbekistan. “We know what happened in Andijan, who fomented tensions in that city and how. It is likewise clear to us that Uzbekistan still has very many problems,” he said. (Itar-Tass)
