On November 19, 2024, Political Representatives from Pridnestrovie and the Republic of Moldova will meet at the OSCE Mission Office in Bendery by mutual agreement.
The agenda of the meeting includes a wide range of trade, economic, and banking issues, operation of Vehicle Registration Offices in Tiraspol and Rybnitsa, violations by Chisinau of human rights in Pridnestrovie, as well as the Pridnestrovian initiative to sign a Declaration on Peaceful Approaches to Settlement between Pridnestrovie and Moldova.
Today, about five tons of waste low-current sources were removed outside Pridnestrovie for subsequent disposal from the temporary storage warehouse of MUP Spetzavtokhozyaystvo (Special Vehicle Agency) in Tiraspol.
For several years now, the batteries have been collecting from the population by the relevant agencies and EcoPMR Public Ecological Volunteer Movement.
Notably, Pridnestrovie lacks any designated enterprises dealing with the disposal of used batteries. Moreover, used low-current sources bear grave environmental and population health risks.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Pridnestrovie answers the questions about the referendum, the negotiating process and the relaunch of the 5+2 format, the issue of importing medicines into Pridnestrovie, prospects for economic cooperation with the Russian Federation, and the situation with the shutdown of enterprises of Pridnestrovie due to Moldova’s actions.
Pridnestrovian Minister of Foreign Affairs Vitaly Ignatiev gave an interview to the Russian News Agency Baltnews. He told about refusal of Moldova to consider the opinions of Pridnestrovians regarding the European integration, Chisinau’s unwillingness to constructive dialogue, the suitable way of settlement, as well as Moldova’s violation of the agreed trade regime between Pridnestrovie and the EU.
What do people in Tiraspol think about the Moldovan path towards European integration? What are the potential dangers for Pridnestrovie?
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.
