Yevgeny Shevchuk: Dear journalists, I want to welcome you and thank you for taking time and opportunity for our regular meeting. I take this opportunity to congratulate the Pridnestrovian people, the citizens of Pridnestrovie on the fact that it was on this day in 1995 when a referendum was held as a result of which the version of the current Constitution of the PMR was approved. This is of particular importance for Pridnestrovie, because the basic postulates of government system were approved by the people in that referendum.
