Minister of Foreign Affairs of Pridnestrovie Vitaly Ignatiev received Ambassador Thomas Mayr-Harting, Special Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office. The meeting was also attended by the head of the expert working group on economic issues, First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Development of Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic, Sergei Obolonik, and the Head of the OSCE Mission to Moldova Kelly Keiderling.
The PMR Foreign Ministry is receiving numerous appeals from citizens, public associations and representatives of civil society provoked by recent statements made by Moldovan and European officials about Pridnestrovie in light of the EU membership referendum set to take place in Moldova on 20 October this year.
We have patiently waited and thoughtfully analyzed the steps taken in preparation for this plebiscite, hoping that the voice of citizens living in Pridnestrovie would be equally important.
