There is no official information on who Atambayev will meet with in Moscow.

"The format of the meetings is yet unknown," the press service said.

On Thursday, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin held a telephone conversation with Kyrgyz opposition-nominated premier Roza Otunbayeva who told Putin that her country needed economic assistance to deal with "the difficult situation" in the country. Putin said Russia was ready to offer humanitarian aid.

Otunbayeva assumed power in the ex-Soviet Central Asian nation stormed by recent nation-wide protests and formed a six-month interim government until elections are held.

Protests began in the northwestern Kyrgyz town of Talas on Tuesday and spread to other regions of the country, including the capital, Bishkek. At least 75 people were killed and more than 1,400 injured in the unrest.

On Wednesday, Putin criticized Bakiyev"s policies, saying he had repeated mistakes made by his predecessor, Askar Akayev.
