About the visit of the Russian Federation Defence Minister Sergey Shoygu and ammunition utilization in Kolbasna

«Sergey Shoygu suggested to carry out the audit and utilization of old ammunition. Common sense prompts that it should be done. Here environmental and anthropogenic occupational safety is important».

«This ammunition has to be utilized in certain conditions. Now it is just a desire, but to come to the realization, it is necessary to pass a very long way, to sign some intergovernmental arrangements».

«I want to make it clear: reduction, utilization of the ammunition is an internal affair of Pridnestrovie and the Russian Federation. If some politicians of Moldova want to speculate on this subject, it is a useless business. I do not see their participation here at all. Once again I repeat: this is the internal affair of Pridnestrovie and Russian Federation. We make the decision».

About interaction with Russia

«If to speak generally about the interaction between Pridnestrovie and the Russian Federation, we always allocate the following vectors. The first vector is, of course, political: Russia is a guarantor, the intermediary and the observer between Pridnestrovie and Moldova. Russia plays a significant role in our negotiations with a neighbouring state. The second: here, in Pridnestrovie, there are peacekeepers of the Russian Federation. At a meeting with Sergey Kuzhugetovich further need of peacemaking was confirmed. The third vector is economic, the fourth – the cultural and humanitarian, and fifth direction – information. And of course, at the meetings with Dmitry Kozak and with other public officials, the staff of the MFA discuss this interaction».

About transit of the Russian gas through Ukraine

«We cannot influence transit of the Russian gas – either I or the president Dodon who constantly speaks about it. It is in the competence of two presidents – Putin and Zelensky. But we have to consider everything, including negative options of a succession of events, and to be ready to them».

«Of course, it is necessary to be ready for everything for 100%, I absolutely agree with you. In this regard, the block of drafts of laws on gas has been already almost developed. In these drafts of laws which should be accepted and considered in the Supreme Council, naturally, this year some plans are put. It is the plan in case of preservation of the Russian gas. The plan in case of a reduction of pressure in a pipe of transit of the Russian gas. And the plan in case of lack of transit of the Russian gas. Each scenario is spoken, according to each scenario there is an algorithm of actions of the public officials».

About rumors of devaluation

«Data show ruble is a stable currency. It was reached during the harmonious work of the president, the Central Bank, Government and the Supreme Council. Therefore there is no reason to speak about the devaluation».

About threat from Moldova to block the road to Bendery

«There was a good idea to increase the capacity of the most intense post – on the Chisinau direction – and to add two more traffic lanes, to organize a tourist traffic lane. I hoped for a positive response, but the Moldavian side said in the JCC that in case these traffic lanes extend, we will block the gate to Chisinau. Also, the positions on boundary posts are really strange too. It is strange to hear from the Moldavian politicians a question on the elimination of our posts though they put the posts in the Ukrainian territory».

«Unfortunately, we will not implement that project about the expansion of the traffic lanes on the Chisinau direction yet, being afraid of blocking of the movement to Chisinau. It is impossible to cause inconveniences. By the way, I will surely ask Igor Nikolaevich about this strange position. On the contrary, let's expand strips, let's provide free movement of citizens and Moldova including in the territory of Pridnestrovie together. Why there is such a strange position?»

«Irrespective of the behavior of our neighbours we will make Pridnestrovie more attractive. For this purpose, many cultural centres, parks and so on are under construction, and Pridnestrovie becomes better. And the tourists who come here really appreciate it».

About a possible meeting with the president of the RM Igor Dodon

«I am ready to meet the president of the RM Igor Dodon every week if only there will be the actual result. We will talk why these or those problems are not solved. The negotiators are already from the party of socialists, it seems, everything is normal, let's move and let's work. We should have the actual result».

About the possible meeting with the Prime Minister of the RM Maya Sandu

«I have never refused meetings. To plan such a meeting it has to be the corresponding protocol, but, in fact, I will never refuse it. If Maya Sandu decided to meet me, unambiguously this meeting will take place. As for the questions, they are the same as usual: economy, issues of cultural and humanitarian communications, bank, telecommunication, transport and so on. I have nothing against it».

About a memorial Soviet tank which is exposed to acts of vandalism in Moldova

«It is about the IS-3 tank on Ungheni district memorial. It is in an extremely unattractive state. Besides, on the available information, it has no historical value to Moldova. Therefore I want to address the Moldavian leaders: if you cannot protect the historical memory of the Soviet soldier, give the tank to Pridnestrovie. We will put it in order, and it will serve as the evidence of the victory of the Soviet weapon in the Great Patriotic War».

About investments

«We work with different investors – from Russia, Moldova, Ukraine, the USA, Romania, Italy… There is a good slogan: «Business without any policy». It is necessary to be the pragmatist in this plan – to develop, go forward. Behind this business, there are taxes, jobs, salaries, pensions of the Pridnestrovian citizens… The investment attractiveness is closely connected with acknowledgement, so we should offer investors something so interesting that people came and work there despite the international status of our state».

About sport support

«We created federations of different sports, sports societies are formed, «Dynamo» and the Sports Club of the Army is revived completely, the «GTO» institute is revived, and, of course, on the basis of comprehensive schools mass sporting events are held».

«It will be continued making investments in objects for physically disabled people. Next week we will lease the new building of a boarding school for children with violations of the musculoskeletal device. This object is constructed from scratch. Next year we will hand over a big sports complex in Tiraspol also for people of this category. The other day we will also open the school of the Olympic reserve on the basis of Tiraspol School No. 4».

About Fund of investments

«We build infrastructure, we repair roads and sidewalks, networks, we create park zones, fountains, we work on gardening. We do it only for people. It is not necessary to leave for tomorrow, it should be done. Let's work, and everything will be good».

«Therefore construction, repair and material support of health care facilities will be a priority of Capital Investments Fund in 2020».

«The Capital Investments Fund helps to create hundreds of buildings. There appeared need of workers on these buildings. A very decent salary is offered. Much builders who participate in the program of the Fund came back from the Russian Federation».

Wish by Day of the Republic

«I wish the peace to the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic. Everything is based on peace - economy, policy, happiness and love. Without this base – everything will fail».
