Kyrgyzstan pays pensions to citizens of other nations
Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
The Social Fund of Kyrgyzstan began providing pension payments to 201 citizens from Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) countries.
The payments resulted from a pension agreement that took effect on January 1, 2021. This agreement lets people from Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Armenia, and Belarus receive benefits based on work they did in another EAEU member state. Most of the pensions went to citizens of Russia, with 181 people receiving payments.
Kyrgyzstan also assigned pensions to 17 citizens of Kazakhstan and 3 from Belarus. Payments ended for 5 Russian citizens and 2 from Kazakhstan, either because they hadn’t applied for a long time or requested the termination themselves. Russia, in turn, provided partial pension payments to 180 citizens of Kyrgyzstan. The agreement allows for the full realization of pension rights for citizens who have worked across borders within the EAEU.
