BISHKEK (Reuters) - Kyrgyzstan's opposition seemed to have seized control of the Central Asian country on Thursday after days of violent protest, but there was no word on the whereabouts of President Askar Akayev, the man it wants to oust.Somewhere, someday, I will have a dateline that starts with "Bishkek". Then, I'm gonna get the hell out of there.
I honestly don't have enough knowledge of Kyrgyzstan to say whether this is a good thing or not. But it does seem to fit a trend in the FSU. Cautious optimism, anyone?
