Kyrgyzstan held a snap parliamentary election on November 30, 2025, with President Sadyr Japarov's allies expected to secure a victory. The election took place without formal opposition parties, following a period of increased government control over media and opposition groups since Japarov came to power in 2020. This election is seen as a move to consolidate Japarov's power and pave the way for his potential re-election in the 2027 presidential election. The dissolution of the previous parliament and call for a snap election was voted for in September. Japarov's government argues that previous attempts to adopt Western-style political systems have failed to bring stability or improved living standards to the country.
