And no, I did not search these capital cities on the internet... I can name nearly any capital in the world... Send me a PM and I'll show you :)

Actually, it's spelled Bishkek, not Bishkent.

There's an actual town in Tajikistan named Bishkent.

I believe that they all safe for TAR to visit....

Have you read the US DEPT OF STATE Guidelines for each of those? Maybe research before posting statements like that would be a good idea.

Maanca:
TAR Israel just spent two legs in Kyrgyz last season, but a place that's safe for one country's citizens may not be for another.

DavidJunior:
Just because they have a 1 even for US state department, doesn’t mean they’re viable locations

Ease of entry is another factor (Turkmenistan is notoriously difficult to get travel visas for)

Frequency of flights and air traffic flow is another factor

The “-stans” don’t have many frequent flights outside of Moscow and Istanbul

Geo-political matters may also be a factor

Going to one part of Cyprus might cause a sticky situation with Greece or Turkey

Uzbekistan is prob the most likely, but I also wouldn’t hold my breath for an imminent visit
