The Pridnestrovian President held a meeting with a delegation of the Communist Party faction of Russia in the State Duma of the Russian Federation headed by Chairman of Committee on Property, Chairman of the Russian Federation Federal Assembly State Duma inter-factional group on Cooperation with the Supreme Soviet of the PMR Sergei Gavrilov.
The meeting was also attended from the Russian side by deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, First Deputy Chairman of the Council of the UPC–CPSU, Secretary of the CPSU CC Kazbek Taisaev, from the Pridnestrovian side - Deputy Chairperson of the Government of the PMR for International Cooperation, Minister for Foreign Affairs Nina Shtanski, Deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the PMR, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Pridnestrovie Oleg Khorzhan.
The sides discussed topical issues of Russian - Pridnestrovian interaction. Particular attention was paid to the socio-economic situation in Pridnestrovie in the context of the impact of regional and global instability, as well as measures to minimize the effects of the crisis. “We would like to examine the situation onsite, the depth of the problems faced by the national economy of Pridnestrovie,” - said Sergei Gavrilov.
“We know that the easy solution to those problems, facing by the country today, does not exist. On the one hand - the position of Ukraine, on the other - the position of the current government in Moldova do not allow normal development of internal economy of the republic. What is happening now in Ukraine - it is certainly a tragedy. All this affects the life here in Pridnestrovie, - said Kazbek Taisaev. - Unfortunately, there are forces that are now trying to use the economic problems in the country, for the benefit of themselves. There are politicians who believe that “the worse is the better”, the easier it is to go to the people and get more votes. We think that this is the wrong way. Today, every effort should be focused only on one thing - support the working man, so that people living in Pridnestrovie have every opportunity for a normal life. We maximally support the president, his position, his team”.
During the meeting, the Russian parliamentarians assured that “all the factions in the State Duma unambiguously support Pridnestrovie today and will do everything to ensure that the problems existing now in the world pass mildlier here. “Russia has to go through hard times now, but Russia has always been and will be with Pridnestrovie. I'm sure Pridnestrovians will feel greater support from Russia this year”, - said Sergei Gavrilov.
By the decision of the Central Council of the UPC–CPSU President of the PMR Evgeny Shevchuk was awarded the Order of the Union of Fraternal Peoples. Deputy Chairperson of the Government of the PMR for International Cooperation, Minister for Foreign Affairs Nina Shtanski was awarded the “70th Anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War” medal.
At the end of the meeting Evgeny Shevchuk thanked the deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation for the support of Russian citizens living in Pridnestrovie and compatriots.
