Askar Akajew
Askar Akajew is a former President of Kyrgyzstan who held office from 1990 until he was ousted in 2005 during the Tulip Revolution. After his removal, he sought refuge in Russia, where he has since lived. Akajew's presidency was marked by allegations of corruption and autocratic governance, but he was also known for his role in Kyrgyzstan's early independence from the Soviet Union. His situation exemplifies Russia’s tradition of offering asylum to deposed leaders, as he has remained in Moscow, away from political turmoil in his homeland.
