Uzbekistan has confirmed the death of its president , islam karimov. He suffered a brain hemorrhage last saturday, and there will be a state funeral for the president who ruled uzbekistan for 27 years. Here is something about the confusion about him for the final days. The confirmation came after days of speculation. He spent his last days at this government hospital. The leader was admitted after suffering a brain hemorrhage. The strongman man did not recover and later died. Karimov ruled uzbekistan for a quarter of a century. In 1989, he became first secretary of the communist party. In 1991, he declared his countrys independence from the soviet union. It was not democratic. Karimov ruled the country with an iron fist, relying on mentality and rigged elections to maintain his grip on power. In march 2015, he was reelected with more than 90 of the vote. Observers questioned whether the balance was really free and fair. Karenimovss has created a power vacuum. The next president may be one of his daughters. A government insider or someone from the secret service or the military or probably will probably succeed him. It is unlikely that person will steer the asian country away from authoritarian rule and towards democracy. Terry lets get some insights from steve from human rights watch.

There should be an end to torture and access for things like George Avella has not been inside Deutsche Welle has not been able to be in uzbekistan for years. We will only see it if [indiscernible] otherwise we will see a continuation of the atrocious human rights situation. Terry karimov had his defenders, who said it was necessary to stop the rise of islamist radicals. Is that a valid argument . There are security concerns in the neighborhood of afghanistan to the south, and some uzbek fighters in iraq in syria. The sources of instability that would cause people to turn to extremiss ideologiest are the human rights experiences in the country. A government that is entirely if human rights abuses can be addressed, it will go a long way to solving or a step towards a reading of the security concerns. Terry thank you so much, from human rights watch. Thank you.
