The statement from the cabinet emphasizes that the interpretation of the situation is not accurate. In an interview with the First Deputy Prime Minister Daniyar Amangeldiev, only hypothetical scenarios regarding potential restrictions were discussed.

The cabinet noted that Amangeldiev's words were misinterpreted, and the Kyrgyz Republic does not intend to and is not planning to sue the European Union.
Furthermore, the official statement clarifies that Kyrgyzstan's position remains unchanged: the republic acts in accordance with national legislation, international obligations, and norms of international law. Issues related to export control, compliance with restriction regimes, and prevention of violations are addressed through dialogue with international partners, including EU structures.
The Cabinet of Ministers also added that the interaction between Kyrgyzstan and the European Union is aimed at creating transparent procedures, exchanging information, and strengthening regulatory mechanisms. Legal actions or confrontational approaches are not part of the official policy.
Thus, the cabinet confirmed that the publication by the Financial Times does not reflect the real position of Bishkek: the Kyrgyz Republic does not intend to and is not preparing for legal action against the EU in the context of sanctions related to Russia, and remains committed to constructive cooperation with the European Union.
