In the framework of constant working communication, a telephone conversation between the Pridnestrovian Minister of Foreign Affairs Vitaly Ignatiev and the Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Sergey Gubarev took place.
The Minister expressed his gratitude to the Russian side for its substantial support in the fight against the coronavirus infection spread in Pridnestrovie, including the donation of 5000 tests and related reagents for COVID-19 virus disease detecting.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the PMR welcomed the decision of the Moldovan side to facilitate accommodation and professional conditions on the territory of the Republic of Moldova for the medical staff concerned during the lockdown.
The Pridnestrovian side has initially been consistent in proposing this recommendation to Moldovan representatives and welcomes this long-overdue decision taking into account the international and Pridnestrovian experience in coronavirus infection containment based on people’s life and health care.
The PMR Ministry of Foreign Affairs reviewed the representative on political issues from the Republic of Moldova Cristina Lesnic’s statements on convening a kind of “emergency” video meeting with the “5 + 2” format representatives’ participation.
As able to see, due to the lack of convincing arguments, the Moldovan side is demonstrating a critical decline in its professional level and that negatively affects the dialogue quality and impedes progress in the settlement.
A whole series of objective facts completely offsets Chisinau’s speculative attacks.
