U.S. can continue using Manas air base
Kyrgyzstan has agreed to allow the United States access to its Manas air base after agreeing to new financial terms offered by Washington.
Kyrgyz Foreign Minister Kadyrbek Sarbayev said Washington would pay Bishkek 60 million dollars per year for renting the base, a significant increase on the previous annual rent of 17.4 million dollars.
The deal only allows the U.S. to transit non-lethal supplies through the air base.
