On November 30, 2010, Foreign Minister of the Pridnestrovien Moldavian Republic attended event in the European Parliament devoted to the preliminary results of the elections to the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova.
In the light of high importance for the Moldova-Pridnestrovie settlement of the Summit of the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe held on 1-2 December, in Astana, the refusal of Moldovan acting President Mihai Ghimpu from participating in the given international forum is indicative of Chisinau’s extremely irresponsible approach to the question of political normalization of relations.
