US press accounts of Akayev were usually favorable. Kyrgyzstan got lots of US and international aid money. It was a member of the WTO. It was considered relatively free and democratic. Now, suddenly, the US is complaining, Kyrgyzstan is considered a dictatorship, and Akayev has been demonized. How quickly views change...
