On 27 September, parliament rejected six of 16 candidates Bakiev had selected.
Among those rejected was Roza Otunbaeva, who had been serving as acting foreign minister in the government that took over in late March. She was one of the leaders of the Tulip Revolution that ousted President Askar Akaev.
Bakiev's new nominee for that post is Alibek Jekshenkulov.
