Tajik President Emomali Rahmon Returns to Dushanbe After Touristic and Therapeutic Trip
Sources in Tajikistan reported that Emomali Rahmon, president of Tajikistan, returned to Dushanbe on Monday morning following a "touristic and therapeutic" trip and is in full health.
The sources confirmed to Hasht-e Subh on Friday, February 13, that Rahmon had arrived in the capital hours earlier.
Rahmon's nearly two-week absence from public view had sparked widespread rumors about his health, with some media outlets claiming he had traveled to China for medical treatment.
In recent days, speculation intensified due to his lack of media appearances.
Rahmon, known in Tajikistan as the "Leader of the Nation," enjoys significant support among Tajiks worldwide. He is recognized for his firm stances against religious fundamentalism and extremism. In official settings, he frequently quotes Persian language and literature figures who emphasize wisdom and rationality in governance.
