The ex-president also commented on media opinions that "the Bakiyev problem" may be solved in a vendetta. "concerning my security and possible vendetta, i must say that the blood of everyone who died in april 2010 was the responsibility of those who brought people to the house of government and armed them. it is the responsibility of the incumbent leaders: atambayev, otunbayeva, tekebayev, beknazarov and others" Bakiyev said
