According to the RIA Novosti news agency, Kazakh officials also denied a possible meeting between Bakiyev and Nazarbayev, saying it was not on the presidential agenda.
Last week, thousands of protesters clashed with security forces throughout the country, driving out local governments and seizing government headquarters in Bishkek. Latest figures from the Health Ministry put the death toll of the riots up to 84.

Bakiyev fled to the south and opposition parties formed an interim government led by Otunbayeva, former foreign minister.
The interim government said Bakiyev and his brothers were responsible for the unrest.
However, in the handwritten and signed letter of resignation submitted to the interim government early Friday, whose copy was posted by Kazakh news agency on its website, Bakiyev said he bore certain responsibility for the events that occurred, but all responsibility for the bloodshed of innocent people "rests with the members of the interim government, who used them for seizing power."
He also said in the letter: "On these tragic days for the Kyrgyz people, understanding all responsibility for the Kyrgyz people's future and for preserving the state's integrity and Kyrgyz statehood, I resign in line with Article 50 of the Kyrgyz Constitution."
